I had this fancy bedside alarm clock that show atmospheric pressure for a while now, it was a present from a friend. I could never tell though if 756 mbars today is better or worse than seven-hundred-what-was-that-mbars yesterday.
I know that it can be useful to know if the pressure is above or below normal and by how much. Why not to make everyone’s life easier and let people know exactly that?
It’s easy to name a lot of things that mobile phones are good for: communication, entertainment, organizing contacts and things to do, etc. All of this comes supposedly at an unnoticeable risk to our health and safety (never use mobile phones whilst driving).
I’ve recently discovered that mobile phones can also pose risk to people who use compasses for navigation. How come?
