Whats next? Air? http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/24/garden/24granite.html?no_interstitial[^] Seriously, can we just stop with the daily you get cancer from x! It's getting to the point where you have to avoid living in order to be safe from things that potentially can harm you.

Wow.. cellphones are one thing, they're man made and it's still an unknown, but countertops! I don't like the quote “But I’ve seen a few that might heat up your Cheerios a little.” I don't want my cheerios heated!!! :o

This won't help the housing market either since most newer homes have granite already installed. To think I have been complaining about my old formica countertops forever but didn't want the expense of upgrading. That is until the realize formica causes cancer as well!

A new study shows that CP users suffer an elevated risk of Hemorrhoids, short Hamstrings and Repetetive Strain Injury. The exact mechanism is still undetermined, however the INeedANewGrant lab of Trenton, N.J. feels confident that CP poses significant risk to its users. CP declined to comment, or rather their comments are unprintable. Regular CP user MidWestLimey (Not real name) said: "I used to think I got those from sitting on my arse all day typing code, but now I know it's CP I'm suing!" ... CRAPOLA NEWS FEED ...

I'm largely language agnostic

After a while they all bug me :doh:

I'm waiting for the study that shows that wearing clothes causes cancer. I mean, really, do you know of any nudists who ever got cancer? :)

If you can't afford to be diagnosed, its not cancer, its natural causes. To avoid getting cancer, just don't go to the hospital. Oh yah, and everything in moderation :-p

Oh wow, this has only been known for err... 90 years? Some people want to be victims.

Hmmmm dangerous place the UK ! I was going to recommend North Uist (North West of Scotland) almost no granite, lots of sheep, wildlife, peat, heather, and tranquility. My partner has a self catering cottage there, short break in the cottage was great. HOWEVER danger its got lots of sea around it, seaside = ozone, and its dangerous http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4013511.stm[] "oh nooo....." :confused: :-D

Let's face it, the world is getting it's own back. We're all gonna die! (someday). I realised years ago that living was killing me, now I've just learned to live with it.

The tragedy of your times is that you may get exactly what you want!

And what did you believe before ? :) Cancer is a random gene mutation, so being alive is true the cause of cancer - the longer you live the more is the chance of it developing, other factor are just helping :~
