So you agree there may be long term health effects but disagree anyone could have virtually immediate effects?

Paranormal has nothing to do with it.

I can hear lotsa electronics. If a TV's on anywhere in the house, even if its on mute, I can hear it. It buzzes and grates on my nerves so bad. Sets my teeth on edge.

I can hear all kinds of little electronics noises. I dunno why or how or anything -- all i can say is it gets fairly annoying.

Those things like they have in store doorways to scan you as you leave are the worst.

Yes. When you get an X-ray done, it could give you cancer. But you can't feel it happening. And that is much stronger than a school bus full of text-messaging teens.

I can hear some electronics, too. That's a different thing- they are emitting high-pitched sound waves. The "secret teen cell phone ring" is based on the inability of most adults to hear that high of a register. That has nothing to do with her claim. She is claiming that she can feel radio waves.

I was right- Randi's up for it.

I wonder why this seems to have been posted in a women's-interest section of the paper. I don't really see what her being a woman has to do with the story.

If the President smokes weed...

...Does the guy who sells the weed that the President smokes know he's selling weed to the President? Or is there an official Presidential Dope Picker Upper?

If the President does something illegal,

and the Secret Service is part of the Executive Branch that administers law,

but is charged with protecting the President at all times,

...do they arrest the President... for his own safety?

If not, then protecting the President regardless of the law is their job, and the Secret Service should be buying the President's weed anonymously, and testing it for purity and potency.
