Hi all, recently, an article about "the biological implications of social networking" published in The Biologist by Aric Sigman (Fellow of the English Royal Society for Medicine) has been causing quite a stir. According to the author, intensive use of electronic media is linked to increased morbidity/mortality for cancer. I had already addressed that in post on my blog. Today it is a pleasure to announce that, based on questionable data and on problematic assumptions, I have come out with a seemingly preposterous claim: actually Internet cures cancer! To read all about it, please visit http://www.bodyspacesociety.eu/2009/04/19/new-discovery-actually-internet-cu... Feel free to forward to anyone interested: this may save millions of lives...
