You do if you're pale skinned like me and live in New Zealand. The Antartic Ozone Hole is so big, it often exposes us to harmful rays.
Sunburn on overcast days can occur after only 10 mins.
Note: temperature in NZ summer seldom exceeds 28 degrees celcius.
Sorry to be pedantic, but I just thought you should know...

There are also reports on mobile phones causing disfunctioning of the male sexual organ. Also some time back there were reports/rumors linking mobile phone users and baldness. Is this true?

well it must be. I'm bald and use a mobile phone....
carkitter, no worries dude. I am actually fully aware of the ozone hole, and even here in Aus, QLD we can only go out for 10mins or so. Didn't mean to misguide anyone into going into the sun for too long. I guess what I'm getting at is if peeps use the same common sense about sun exposure with mobile phone exposure as well, then they minimise the risk substantially. |

Actually our skull contains active marrow i.e. the one that forms blood cells so when we use mobile phone its radiations stimulate that marrow & then it starts proliferating rapidly & more & more it does so we're at increased risk of developing leukemia or blood cancer. Increased wear & tear of cells predisposes to increased chances of genetic mutation & in due course the gene might get deleted which keeps a check on mutations. I know a guy who is just a normal mobile phone user, he used to talk for averagely half an hour a day & after few months he has developed inflammation of the ear drum & now he can't talk @ any sort of phone or can't listen to loud noises because otherwise he immediately develops severe headache & earache. The only cause that made him disabled is mobile phone usage & it's diagnosed by specialists.

yes but that dude is either predisposed to it or has some condition that makes him more susceptible. I use the phone for more than half an hour everyday without fail. I don't get headaches, nausea, earaches or nothing. I've been using mobiles for over ten years, including the stronger analog phones, which I used regularly for an hour or more for the first couple of years of using mobiles.
Now I try to avoid hour long conversations on the moibile, but other than that still use the thing quite alot.
Just like some people will get skin cancer from very little exposure, would you recommend EVERYONE to avoid the sun? I myself like sitting in the sun, and I aint gonna stop. Same for using mobiles. The risk is there but it's minimal.

I also read somewhere that a lot of frequent mobile usage makes one dumb . ?.

See the question here is not about the susceptibility but it's the thing that how most of us react & we never know who's gonna get struck by that hit & run so it's better that we should avoid those harmful things as much as possible because their safety is not proven at all.
There's a study by an university that mobile phone waves actually help in preventing Alzheimer's & they've carried out that study in mice & have published the paper as well but that doesn't mean we'll start using it more & more because harmful effects of mobile phones are more alarming now-a-days because of it's widespread usage. We should take atleast some measures to keep that thing at a distance by turning on the speaker phone or using headset.

Keep your exposure down yes, but let's not get nuerotic about it.
I rarely use a headset, and besides, some studies report headset's as delivering more radiation to the head than just holding the phone to your ear...so go figure.
After the steam engine was invented and the first passanger steam train was due to be trialled, the public were invited to jump on and take part. Scientists of the day condemned stephenson because they claimed that the projected top speed of the train (40km/h) was so fast that no human would be able to withstand the forces generated and all would be crushed to death.
If you use a mobile phone, you may be the one in 100,000 cases who react very badly. You have way better odds of walking out onto the street and getting hit by a car to be honest. You could always just stay housebound to avoid all risk, but then you'd probably die from led paint or asbstos poisoning
