wot not to do with mobile

There are a few emails going around the office showing pictures oh how to cook an egg with 2 mobiles switched on and an egg in between. The article says that after about 60 minutes, the egg will be cooked, and imagine what this will be doing to your brains??
The answer is that THIS IS A BIG LIE as any body with a smattering of knowledge of science will suss out. The peak output from a mobile is in the order of 5 watts. The average output is about one eighth of this - ie 0.625 watts. That, coupled with the fact that heat is conducted away from the egg, will ensure the egg never gets cooked. There are quite a few more reasons that this is impossible, but cant remember. So, folks, if you are out in the bush without any matches, dont try your phone to make a hot meal - use it to open the car door
