Yes, sheer stupidity, but I did it once with a late evening call. I had a loud humming in my head for hours afterwards.  Pretty funny, yes, and scary.  I had the same reaction after staying on a cell for about an hour while driving.  I later read that you should never use the phone in a small, enclosed place like a car.  The radiation beams bounce off the windows and into your head!!  And where do most folks use cellphones??  Right, in their cars!!  Better to use them in open spaces or with the windows rolled down in the car.  As far as using the phone while it's charging, I heard about someone being killed when he talked on the phone while it was charging and it exploded.  Be careful.  Use cell phones only if absolutely necesaary.  I only use mine only if a landline is not available and, then, only if there is an urgency and I try to keep the call brief and complete the conversation up on the landline.  Tell famiy/friends to call you on your home landline unless it's urgent.  Cellphones should be handled with care and used infrequently and not as a standard phone or socializing toy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Janina]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 4th 2008 10:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wish they'd blow up on idiots who can't drive witout one stuck to their ears.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tami]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 5th 2008 11:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</guid><description><![CDATA[What ever happened to just getting brain cancer ?

Eight years ago my cell phone caught fire while it was up against my ear during a conversation.  I immediately called AirTouch (now Verizon) in Irvine and they passed the buck to colleagues there and no one (or so they claimed) had ever heard of this sort of thing happening.  Eight years have passed and I am sure many hundreds of these sorts of calls have since come into their organization.  However, 'Big Brother' cannot admit that EMF's and High Tech can be deadly, otherwise there would be complete pandemonium around the world.  Where is Al Gore on this issue... we are all living in a new Hot Zone!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lynn]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 29th 2007 2:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/29/exploding-cell-phone-battery-causes-another-death/</guid><description><![CDATA[Seems like life's not so good with LG phone batteries.
