I will look into the proportions more deeply some other time. I wonder if the relatively low frequency radio wave could break up and form higher frequency waves which could alter molecular binding? Current ideas about the hazard of electromagnetic radiation focuses only on the heating effect which seems neglectable.
Can anyone remind me about the criteria for EM wave breakup? David On Mon, Aug 4, 2008 at 11:03 PM, Terry Blanton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Well, I only considered the energy in the range of 1 cm.
