FOOLS RUSH (GSMania)

It is truly amazing the way technology holds an attraction for people. Its grip is almost mystical; females are especially susceptible. Little notice is taken of the fact that this technology is but an evolving science yet to be fully developed. Though they come at a small price, their effect on human health might be more than some would have bargained for, had they been given a choice in the matter in the first place.

It is no gainsaying what benefits this innovative gadget has brought to everyday life: coupling has been made easier, tall tales have been made smoother, flash-access was made for freedom to badger others for free.

For these small benefits that bring life’s delights closer to the heart mankind would give anything to keep the ring-tones beeping, though they come with corrupting influences. This of course does no harm to the cell phone company earnings. Indeed, these conglomerates encourage the more dogged addiction to such a lucrative indulgence.

What about the health hazards?

Ironically, many of the expensive brands prove to pas on higher levels of exposure to radioactive waves. No label is sacrosanct.

In style is forgotten the sublime ramifications of radioactive signals received from satellites in space. For a call between two persons in Calabar to connect, radio signals must get to and fro the US via cosmic commercial communication satellites.

For every funky ‘I love you’ is three second exposure of your brain cells and bone marrow to radioactive influences that leaves your life never the same again (but not as your pastor said it would be).

Leukemia lurks nearer with every call. I read in someplace where it was said that with each incoming call is the equivalent an X-ray shot. (Humans are not expected to take more than ten X-ray shots in a lifetime!)
