	I think this was taken rather out of context.  The way I understood
it, there wasn't any real proof one way or the other but it was recommended
that pregnant women not use electric blankets only because if there is one
time it is justified to be paranoid about health risks, it's when you're
pregnant.  Anybody who is really worried about this would do well to ignore
anything heard on the net and look up the actual studies.
