Jobs: "No Interest" In Phone Radiation "Prediction" App
No surprise that a phone manufacturer doesn't want to give publicity to the phone radiation issue.
Safe Atomic Fission Energy From Thorium?
We've heard promises of safe, cheap atomic energy using uranium before, but thorium has a range of advantages, including being much more abundant &, maybe, safer:

So if thorium has so many advantages, why has humanity persevered with uranium for so long? It has been suggested by many, including the article above, that uranium use has been driven by military interests (in several countries) that want to use uranium (& its daughter element plutonium) for bombs. Notch one more up for thorium.
