I've got a poser for you all ... itchy bits

RSI from MSE maybe?

Mine's brought on by the fact that my husband is completely addicted to on line gaming, and yesterday my neighbour put up the roof trussess on a new extension and has completely blocked our sky signal - no tv (great)!

Cor Blimey.......... as they would say in the old fifties films...

I don't want to start a panic! Honest guv!

I honestly don't know if any of this is rubbish or not. If you've read any of the threads re Allantoin/Mineral Make up/Sheer cover - you'll know I suffer dreadfully skin wise - which is why my ears pricked up straight away when i overheard this conversation regarding the cheap free routers - which then led on to the Wii.

I don't want anyone getting paranoid! But if the company (don't want to name them cos they are really good) who supplied the routers free with the phone package, say they know that they can 'give problems' and supply a free 'wired' router instead - its sort of saying, yes, there is a problem that can affect people.

I'm still not getting rid of my routers or Wii (our routers not a freebie, but neither was it expensive, well not in my mind!)

Wish I could.... And it has nothing to do with anything wireless.... they are sooo noisy. They don't talk, they shout. The 'child' screams pretty much all the time, so they shout at her and so on.

They can't shut a door - they slam it. And so on - now look what you've done Stompy! got me going on something else now.... Is there a 'grumpy old woman thread' I can join?

Frankly, I would be more concerned with brain toasting microwaves emitted from mobile phones and their totally untested relay masts.

there have been no long term studies of the effects of microwaves on the human brain or other soft organs in the way that there would be , for example, if a new car airbag was invented or a new British Standard for electrical insulation was introduced.

Most people are quite happy to glue a phone to the side of a developing childs head which happily absorbs microwaves all day without the first thought as to what the long term damage may be.

Changing the subject slightly; it is akin to the mad rush for laser eye surgery. What other surgical procedure has been so readily approved by the medical fraternity without long term testing?
