3:59a	Cellphones NOT linked to higher risk of brain tumours: study Using a cellphone does not seem to increase the risk of developing the most common type of brain tumour, a large British study suggests.

11:25a	Episode 27 - Scams and Marital Infidelity Episode 26, scams and marital infidelity Scams did not originate on the intrawebs, but, they certainly have proliferated there. We decided to talk about scams, our experience with them, and how to detect them. One excellent way is to type whatever you are interested in into google and add the word 'scam' to your search, you may be surprised. Another great tool is using the website www.snopes.com. Snopes does a decent job of keeping track of urban legends, scams and the like. We then switched gears and talked about marital infidelity. An interesting topic. As Dave is a psychologist he gave some interesting (hopefully) insights into why people cheat on their partners, concentrating on an evolutionary explanation. If you have been scammed email us, we would love to know about it. Please join the frappr map www.frappr.com/brocasarea. Thanks, hope you like it Dave and Isabelle.
