Hello Everyone,

I am sure that many of you have heard the fact that radar guns
used by highway police are now suspected to cause cancer to
police who are frequently exposed to MICROWAVES.

My question is: ARE MICROWAVE OVENS (when used very frequently)
                ALSO CAPABLE OF CAUSING CANCER??

I suspect that microwave ovens have some kind of a shield to
cutoff most of the radiation, but a small portion is still
leaked through and radiates to the user, right??

Thanks,
Baldwin
