This also addresses the popcorn hoax.

Wow, that's crazy (and obviously disturbing). Kinda reminds me of the diet coke and mentos discovery.

Wait, I guess Mary Beth was posting at the same I was. Glad it seems to be a hoax, I'll have to read the whole snopes article.

We tried that at work Definitely a hoax.

I liked this method of cooking. I may try and make it a self cooking restaurant out here.

As snopes points out, people are often scared by new technologies. Cell phones are still kind of new.

I didn't believe it for a second. Way too much energy is needed to pop popcorn (I'm a physics guy, so I think in terms of energy, and heat is energy).

But I am still slightly concerned about holding a cell phone next to your brain for long periods of time per month. Month after month, year after year. I think there is potential risk there.

Yeah, me too kinda but actually more concerned about holding one next to your ear while you're driving.

Ooops, I feel like a monkey's behind !
Guess I will do some popcorn investigating before I post again...
