www.ktvu.com LAFAYETTE, Calif. -- Lafayette Real Estate Broker Alan Marks, 57, had a grand mal seizure last year after 20-years of intense cell phone use. At the time, he estimated a cell phone up to his head for at least 10000 hours over those 20 years. One prominent doctor went on record that Marks' cell phone use likely caused his golf ball-sized, malignant brain tumor, called an oligodendro glioma, which is adjacent to where he held his cell phone. Surgeons removed as much cancer as they could, but now give him 5, maybe 8 years to live. It's painful, said Ellie Marks, Alan's wife. It's horribly painful, yet I want people to know that this is for real. About 90 percent of people in the Bay Area press cell phones regularly to their heads. Some scientists say evidence of long term harm from such intense use is growing. We discovered that cell phone radiation does damage DNA, said Prof. Henry Lee, a Univ. of Washington researcher. Berkeley researcher Lloyd Morgan says telecommunications industry studies are biased and flawed. Other studies suggest a cell phone cancer epidemic. There is going to be hundreds of millions of people potentially getting brain tumors caused by cell phones across this planet, said Morgan. The FDA and the American Cancer Society disagree, saying there's no clear proof of significant risk. Still, consumers are becoming cautious. These (cell phones) are relatively new, said Larry Blackwell of Alameda. We don't know for sure, and there's probably a ...
