Motorcycle Cancer

Perhaps an explanation from the scientists in our midst concerning electromagnetic shielding motorcycle seats. Is this for real? A motorcycle rider in my office brought this to my attention.

Never heard of such a thing, and I've been riding for about 30 years. However, if the gummint will give me a ten million dollar grant to study the phenomena, I'll take it under earnest advisement.

Well, in my opinion, it is all bull-hunkies. Another gimmick to get you to part with your hard earned money. it ranks up there with the electromagnetic sheilded underwear ( www.lessemf.com/personal.html ).
Cancer is caused by all the toxins and poisons in our enviroment and food, plus whether you have a genetic predisposition for it or not.

All these Luddites have failed to mention that cancer existed long before we had electricity and things that generate electromagnetic fields.

Th properly shield yourself, you'll need 1/4" thick layers of soft iron grounded correctly, all around your body. Even then some will still get through.
