Anti Scientific Bilge

One way I am keeping my health and sanity is by not watching this weeks Panorama.

Last week we had a fascinating expose on the "Church" of Scientology. During the filming of which a spokesman of the Church caused the reporter to snap by a verbal form of Chinese water torture. This week the worthwhile/stupid balance is restored with an expose on the dangers of WiFi.

Even before the programme was broadcast, it was being slated for its dodgy use of science. Now respected scientific commentator Ben Goldacre (bookmark his column, it's great) has blown apart its impartiality.

Ben Goldacre, surely?

And yes, his Bad Science column is absolutely essential reading.
