Dangers of Microwaves

If you microwave gas you will get better MPG

Anyone on here sterile because they sat too the television? That was a scare tactic in my generation.

And don't forget 'night air is evil"

Never even think about it.

Some people have a need to buck the establishment, making them appear as if they know something the rest of us don't. Sometimes they are right, but the vast majority of the time they are not.

Absolutely! It seems the list never ends.
My favorite is MSG. It's all but labeled as a poison, yet our bodies make it, many foods are naturally endowed with it and the Chinese, who live under conditions unheard of here live almost as long as we do and all but eat MSG as a snack. Being allergic to it doesn't make it as harmful as peanuts are to those allergic to them.

The site that the article was on has quite a bit of questionable content, to say the least... I am not sure if it would be considered yellow journalism or pure tabloid journalism, perhaps a hybrid...

Walking under a high voltage power line or standing next to your toaster is probably more dangerous than a microwave

If you read it on the Internet, "it must be true!!!!"
