Why not wear a hat full of cress seeds for a few months and note how well they grow/germinate?

Obviously I only want you to do this in the interests of scientific understanding and risk assesment.

It goes without saying that a photographic diary of this experiment would be most useful. :thumbup:

Something tells me that it won't be news to certain people, they'll have long known about the effects of wifi, mobile phone radiation, etc.

I used to have laptop on lap - I kept getting ballache so I stopped doing it & the ballache went away!
Probably fried all my spem though. :(

Yes is should, really.
The only way to shield your self is by blocking the radiation using materials that reflect or absorb the radiation
such as metal and metal grids, tinfoil, special wallpaper for that purpose or something like the Yshield carbon paint.

It's like if your in rain and want to shield yourself, use a quartz crystals round your neck or a umbrella, its your choice.

So, did you read the linked article about NASA utilising quartz crystals? They're not known to absorb or repel water, so that analogy about rain isn't very appropriate.

@ Feather - I wish to have a cress hat also. :rofl:
How the heck did you manage to find an emoticon of someone who appears to have a head full of cress!?!

Cress attempt is made before - with the same result


A handful of schoolgirls eyes of the world because in a school trial had
exposed garden cress to radiation from a wifi router and obtained a rather special result.

The experiment showed that cress seeds that were exposed to radiation
did not sprout - and some others died straight away.
Now it turns out that it is not the first time that the attempt is made.

On a Canadian website you can find a similar study conducted by a Canadian physics / chemistry teacher, Larry Oberg .
In this test however, he did not use garden cress seeds but green lentil.

Mobile Sprouts was great
Canadian chose to expose the seeds respectively for mobile radiation router radiation and no radiation.
After a week, the conclusion was clear: Mobile sprouts were nice and green,
just as they those who had not received radiation.

And with router seedlings was the same as the Danish students saw: Nothing. They either sprouted or developed in this direction.

- Cell phone sprouts were the best, even though they were exposed to the highest dose radiation.
The poor performance of the router sprouts were perhaps caused by dryness in the room or maybe the heat from the router.
I want to try this experiment again with larger groups of sprouts and controlled moisture conditions to compare the results more accurately,
writes Canadian on the website , where you can also see pictures of the evolution of the various test groups.

The problem with his effort is, he assumes that the pulsed radiation and not pulsed are the same,
the test uses he Audiovox 8615V mobile phone which run on the CDMA network and it's not pulsed,
but the Linksys WRT160N Wireless Router is, just as the router the girls used, so he's got the same result
as the girls, without knowing it.

The pulsating is much more harmful to health than non pulsating[a comment from M.N.]

Good thing you stoped using it that way and everything has properly returned to normal in that department.

Radiation from WiFi connections can reduce sperm activity in up to a quarter of men, study finds
Working on a laptop wirelessly may hamper a man’s chances of fatherhood.

In a study, sperm placed under a laptop connected to the internet through wi-fi suffered more damage than that kept at the same temperature but away from the wireless signal.

The finding is important because previous worries about laptops causing infertility have focused on the heat generated by the machines.
Article 0 01E3E0E00000044D 431 468x302

Radiation: It may be convenient, but using a laptop on your lap could be harming your sperm, say researchers (file picture)


At the end of the experiment, 25 per cent of the sperm under the laptop had stopped moving and 9 per cent showed DNA damage.

By comparison, just 14 per cent of samples kept away from the wi-fi stopped moving. And just 3 per cent suffered DNA damage, the journal Fertility and Sterility reports.[..]
