C2, excellent point. I will have to do further research, the time-honoured response to analysis of one's data. I have NOT differentiated between men and women. Maybe women are all right handers and men left handers for cellphone holding. I will now have to go and watch a whole lot more people. I didn't think of that!! Damn. That's the trouble with being non-sexist. I foolishly just assumed they were people. Maybe I should differentiate by age too as old geezers might be left hand holders and youngsters right hand holders for some culturally weird reason.

Because gliomas are age-related, old geezers might be skewing the data.

I will report back. Thanks for your peer review of my research.

And are you saying gliomas were invented with cellphones? <And this, Mq, is utterly wrong:

Glioma existed before cellphones, so cellphones cause only a small proportion of gliomas. >

Google probably has a graph. You are hereby delegated to get data on glioma rates over the last 100 years.

Let's stick to gliomas as a particular form of brain cancer to keep our data manageable. We can consider non-malignant forms later.

The report didn't say how many men and women there were in the glioma research. My guess is more men than women but women live longer than men, so it might be the reverse. Women have smaller brains, so I suppose fewer glial cells means fewer opportunties for gliomas. Men are also dangerous, smoking, eating burnt food, ingesting other carcinogens and flying aircraft [more gamma rays].
