You gotta wonder about whether someone who says:

   Phone manufacturers say no harm is done with 2 W of 1-2 GHz radiation
   blasting an inch from your brain, or from 1 W of 2.4 GHz energy
   sitting on your crotch (notebook computer).

has done his homework sloppily, has an agenda, or something else.

GSM's maximum power output is (I think) 125 mW.  802.11b is typically
30 mW.  But hey, what's an order of magnitude or two between friends?
