Heavy cell phone use tied to poorer sperm quality (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080206/hl_nm/cell_phone_dc_1)
Now this looks to me like a classic example of junk science (and an opportunity for alot of easy jokes, hence my post).
It sounds like a self selecting group to me. Men who use their cell phones alot are probably men who have high stress sales jobs or other jobs/businesses which require them to be multiple places at the same time. So their diet likely sucks, they're under constant stress and VOILA! Their libido goes down. And then some genius blames the phone, even though every other study has disproven any ill effects, especially long term ones. This study admittedly has no cause and effect medical data, just anecdotal nonsense. Call me when the follow up study is done.
