I can't link mine to cell phone use, but during my initial exam with my surgeons I was asked what type of phone I used and which side I used it. I was also asked about head trauma and had to list when and what area of my head it occured. Another interesting quesiton was if I was a Q-tip abuser.

Well,wen...oops! We may have to send you to Q-tippaholics Anonymous!

Oh, yes, back to the topic--

Nope, no cell phone, very little regular phone, pristine clean environment (American Paradise) no smoke, no drink (20 years) Mom smoked while I was but a gleam in Dad's eye, exposed to second-hand smoke as a child, plain bad luck!

Boppie,

   Your post reminded of a thread started by Joef last December. I found it and moved it back to the front for easy access. It was a very popular thread with many posts....
