I disagree regarding whether this type of stuff should be posted on 
Radsafers or not. It is part of the world we live in. Many of us here at 
Radsafers are involved in public debate etc and it is important for us to 
understand the type of massmedial fallout (and other desinformations that 
people may be see or hear) that decison makers, the general public etc are 
exposed to. Personally, I am very sceptical about the EMF-suicide relation 
as being a cause-effect issue. Besides, I doubt very strongly that most 
Radsafers buy the EMF suicide hypothesis. The societal (and probably 
negative) impact is much larger via the AP distribution channels. Most 
Radsafers will not get their minds screwed up because of this kind of 
article - but we may want to know what is going on.

My personal opinion only,
