Beware! a Cell Phone is a Live Dynamite

                          Beware ! A cell phone is a live dynamite

        When I stand at the roadside watching  the   people moving along, one thing that arrests my attention  is their habit of holding a cell phone pressed  to their ear and talking away to glory. According to my count, every third person carries a cell phone. Of the remaining two, one keeps the phone neatly tucked inside his  trouser pocket hidden from view.   The third fellow is a dud who doesn’t know the spelling for  cell phone. About ladies?  Well, they normally don’t use  the cell when they are on the move.

          As of now, there are  ‘5 billion plus ‘cell phones in use in the world. This figure works out  to nearly 75% of the Earth’s  population. India’s share is  ‘687 million plus’, next only to China, which has ‘842 million plus.’

           There is nothing to be proud  of and happy about these figures.         Incidentally, cell phone is a boon and a real blessing to man kind all right  but do you also know that it is a kind of live  bomb  ticking away inside your pocket?  All your internal organs like kidneys, brain, liver and muscles would get affected by the phone’s radiation.  The closer it is  to your body the greater will be the contamination. Scientists too have certified to this effect.

        Here is another scientific finding which spells potential menace to the world.  The cell phone radiation  affects all  the living things around us too, such as bees and birds, besides the human  beings .

      In the summer season, every Indian home in the tropical zone would be  humming with the constant chirps of  sparrows.  There has been a distinct decline in the population of house sparrows in  recent time. Those in India would have noticed it.  I have not heard the hum of sparrows in some years around my house.  Scientists attribute this to the radiation  characteristics of millions cell phones in the atmosphere. Has the sparrow population dwindled down due to cell phones?
