ahhh thanks, thats good to hear, guess ill also have to pick up an LCD hd tv when i finally jump to HD.
ill have to look this up some more though. about the hollywood bit, i kknow they atleast need to base events like that on something believable. for example they cant make a certain character die from cancer because he drank too much water cause that would be completely false. so if LCD's cant cause cancer why would they add that to the movie?
That's EXACTLY the problem with Hollywood! You just naturally assumed that because a movie shows someone being affected by LCDs to have some grain of truth! You know that you can't die of cancer from drinking too much water (although you can die from drinking too much water; it's just that cancer isn't the cause - remember that radio show where a woman died from drinking too much water for trying to win a Wii for her sons?) so you naturally wouldn't believe it even if you saw this in a movie, but if you don't know that LCDs do not emit radiation, and see that a movie shows someone dying from LCD radiation, you now think that you can die from too many LCDs!
I strongly recommend you watch this show called "Hollywood Science" - half the stuff you see in Hollywood is straight out of fiction (they break all known laws of physics) and those that have some basis on physics still take liberties.
It's a great show - and guaranteed to have you saying "WTF?" every 10 seconds or so!
