Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency (“RF”) energy
has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United States, the
Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission
(“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless phones. The FDA issued a website
publication on health issues related to cell phone usage where it states, “The scientific
community at large … believes that the weight of scientific evidence does not show
