I must've killed off 4 years worth of kids then.....
woops.
[quote]One of these pots was then stored for four hours next to a laptop that was wirelessly connected to the internet. The other was stored under identical conditions, minus the laptop.[/quote]
That's not a valid test. They could claim anything from the screen to the RAM is causing this.
Why didn't they have 1 pot with the wifi on and one with the wifi off?
OH SHIT.

I'm gonna bet they did 5 tests too until they got the results they wanted
This isnt science
it seems like everything damages your sperm or gives you cancer, it's a bit too late to tell us now
Heat damages sperm? No fucking shit. How is this news?
Why were they testing this anyway?

To see if Wi-Fi damages Sperm?
Damn, for male sex cells, sperm cells really are pussies.
[QUOTE=Bytecry;33492354]Why were they testing this anyway?[/QUOTE]
Since because science.
[quote]"Ejaculated sperm are particularly sensitive to many factors because outside the body they don't have the protection of the other cells, tissues and fluids of the body in which they are stored before ejaculation. Therefore, we cannot infer from this study that because a man might use a laptop with wi-fi on his lap for more than four hours then his sperm will necessarily be damaged and he will be less fertile.

There you have it. This article is talking about sperm outside of the body. To get the same decrease in fertility seen in this study, you'd have to first wank all over your laptop and leave it for 4 hours.

You make it sound like such a strange thing to do.

That's not an entirely unrealistic scenario.

"FOR SCIEEEEEEEEN-oh god that was good"
Dude, i knew this since wifi was made applicable.
I didn't need BBC to tell me this.
[QUOTE=MisterSjeiks;33492638]But what if you keep your laptop on your butt?[/QUOTE]
That makes you a contorsionist.
It's not like I will be wanting kids anytime soon so... :v:

But then you won't have any by the time you want some... :v:
[QUOTE=Bytecry;33492354]Why were they testing this anyway?[/QUOTE]
To give parents a reason to not let their kids use the computer.

Thank god sperm is being constantly reproduced and replaced
On the bright side, this means less starbucks hipsters in future generations.

...Until your testes can no longer function properly when producing new sperm, which might be caused by the constant heat of a laptop or the 'radiation' (if one can even call it that) emitted, resulting in sterility if the damage is significant enough.
However, such a condition could take years to form, given if the laptop was seemingly super glued to the man's crotch (ie. used everyday for months on end).
What about my iPhone in my pocket every wake hour of my day, constantly connected over Wi-Fi?
Damn.
So having sex whilst playing your favorite game is a bad idea? Who knew, unless you use the laptop as your primary means of storing your future children
So did they test it by having men use laptop to watch porn and then jerk off?
