  1. I just came across a rather lengthy article -- which contains quite a
    bit of technical mumbo-jumbo -- about how no one should ever use a
    microwave oven for anything. Something about how its an unnatural way
    of "exciting" the molecular structure of foods, which, in some cases,
    results in carsinogetic by-products, or something of that nature. Is
    this so? Are there any other sources that can prove -- or disprove --
    this theory? (If you're interested its at www.herbalhealer.com)

    You're just spamming us to get people to visit your site, right? ;-)

    There are so many things wrong with that article it's hard to know where to
    begin. Where do people come up with this stuff? There is some correct technical
    information spread through the article, but most of it is fantasy land. I
    especially like the part about: "Who invented microwave ovens?" It is truly
    entertaining!

    If one really wanted to avoid carcinogenic products produced by a cooking
    method, throw out the charcoal and gas grills. There's very little doubt that
    some of the byproducts of that method of cooking are carcinogenic.

    The sky is falling! The sky is falling! OMG the sky is falling!

    Heh, microwaves have been around longer than you have, dufus, and not just
    in the form of ovens. Better put on your tinfoil hat, someone is probably
    trying to infect your brainwaves at this very moment! Eeek! Can't you feel
    them?!

    Space aliens.
    The traded us that technology for being allowed to harvest cow anuses.

    They invented velcro too.
    I'm not going to mention what they traded for that!

    And always throw away that crispy skin when you roast your poultry!
    That stuff is death on a plate.

    Ack! How am I going to get my tongue unstuck out of my cheek now? ;-p

    Some of you are laughing, but it is true. My grandfather ate crispy chicken
    skin for about 90 years and he died just a couple of days of eating more.
    Granny has not been the same since as she feels responsible as she was the
    one that roasted the damned bird.

    Geez.

    If we can all live to be 90 eating crispy chicken skin, we will die
    HAPPY!!!

    I've used microwaves for more than just cooking. Been around enough high
    powered UHF RF gear that I should be cooked by now.

    Funny you mention that. I always get a little concerned about my laptop
    being in my lap then realize the antenna is in the surround of the LCD
    panel, not on the bottom.

    But lifehacker.org just had a neates office contest. One guy had put a
    slab of pegboard underneath his desk and then nylon tied all his
    networking and other devices to the pegboard, including an 802.11g WAP.

    His huevos are going to be cooked!
