Before a danger is recognized in the public sphere, regardless of what science has to say, most will continue to argue in defense of the poisons they consume most often. Before the age of science, the best known example is probably the use of lead by the Romans, but even back then the well informed knew. Oftentimes, regulators hold back for as long as possible, lagging far behind scientific research. In recent history we need only think of cigarettes and plastics, and if we look back a little bit farther we find companies telling their workers to lick brushes they were using to apply glow in the dark paint containing radium. Could EMF from our cellphones, power lines, and WiFi fall into the same, or a similar, category?
