Firstly I accept the media doesn't always paint the real picture.  Having said that, Geoffrey Lean appears to be doing a pretty good job of highlighting the "possible" issues of Wi-Fi.  From my perspective the Wi-Fi debate is pretty simple; Wi-Fi is school doesn't add any value from an educational perspective over hard wired (cabled) computers.  If you read all the Wi-Fi research available, its still hard to know what the real truth is.  Given we can expect the Wi-Fi research debate to continue for year to come, I'd prefer not to gamble with my children's lives, and hence will live without Wi-Fi.  If in 5+ years, we find that Wi-Fi if proven safe, then all well and good.  If however we find that Wi-Fi is actually dangerous, at least I will know I've done the best I can for my children, and not gambled with their lives.

Since we are on the subject of Wi-Fi, its interesting to see that Germany and Salzburg in Austria are prepared to go a step further than the UK Government. 

I've heard a few people say to me that the Panorama Wi-Fi programme was full of scientific in-accuracies - its amazing how many of us are prepared to become scientists overnight :) .  You can read Powerwatch's view of Wi-Fi here.

Imagine for a minute that the whole Wi-Fi debate is actually similar to the power lines debate that has been going on for years.  Reading this article (1999), its almost a mirror of what is happening in Wi-Fi land. If the scientists can't agree, what chance does the general public have of knowing the truth? 

In the above linked article the Health Protection Agency "accepted there was a weak statistical 'association' between prolonged exposure to power fields and childhood leukaemia".   Wouldn't you expect the Health Protection Agency to make this public to help save children's lives?  Then again, if we are dealing with the same Health Protection Agency that has so far failed to act on Wi-Fi, we're all in serious trouble.  From where I sit, it looks like the Health Protection Agency is prepared to gamble with our lives, and our children's lives

Anyone know if the power lines report has been release yet?
