Dear Mike
Since I haven't heard from you regarding my two proposals of 23 March, I was wondering whether you had made any progress?
I was also interested to read a quotation of you in the Guardian article yesterday "Making Waves", regarding mobile phone base station safety. You are reported as saying: "Evidence for scientists is epidemiological - ie looking at people and their habits and finding out what makes them ill ... after epidemiological studies come animal experiments, then experiments in Petri dishes, and then the anecdote."
This sounds like anecdotes are the least important. What prompts epidemiological studies? Surely it is this same anecdotal evidence of an effect whose cause deserves inquiry?
And that is all we are asking for.
regards
Andy
