I wasn't trying to be argumentative but I fear people will read what she wrote and actually believe her when it doesn't have an ounce of truth to it. It is such a junk website that it is laughed at by anybody with any type of grip on science. She scoff at real scientific studies that are completely unbiased yet believes a quack like Mike Adams who has no credentials at all.

People are entitled to their own opinions but not their own facts and he couldn't be further off base with almost everything on his site. Natural News is a DANGEROUS site. It actually backs up the faked vaccine and autism study of Andrew Wakefield.

I am all for challenging mainstream media especially when there is some type of cover up but he uses absolutely no proof or real scientific evidence whatsoever and has no type of credentials. He is simply a quack.

Thank you- this is what i was trying to explain- There is still a "flatEarth" society, after all...

If you buy a new microwave, buy a Sharp. Best, longest lasting microwave on the market, IMO.

Ditto! The best.

Wow, still 'microwaves are evil' information out there. Hopefully, nobody believes any of that stuff in this age of being able to get facts.

Dear Everyone,

Thanks so much for all your replies. I did steam some frozen broccoli last night in a pot with water and olive oil. Turned out just fine. I don't think I'll have a problem going without a microwave, but it does have the convenience factor. It's great for when I'm running late or just need to warm something up real quick. So I think I'll be shopping this week-end for a new microwave. Mine that dies was a GE and only lasted 8 years. I think I'll buy another brand like Sharp or Whirlpool.

Take care.
