		<description><![CDATA[For as long as there&#8217;s been new technologies, there&#8217;s been scam artists ready to take money from people who have irrational fears about them. This phenomenon dates at least back to the introduction of home electrification, which was quite mysterious to many at the time. More recently, scammers have flogged fears about mobile phones purportedly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In today&#8217;s Fairfax op-ed section, Anne Summers writes expansively on how feminism and &#8216;pro-life&#8217; positions on abortion are mutually exclusive. Of course, she&#8217;s dead right. First, the term &#8216;pro-life&#8217; is nonsensical. Every normal human on the planet is &#8216;pro-life.&#8217; To suggest otherwise implies that there&#8217;s some &#8216;pro-death&#8217; people out there who would like to see [...]]]></description>
