Since when does correlation equate causation?

Sperm count, cell phone link dismissed...
<quote>
"It is an observational as opposed to interventional study which appears  
not to take into account the many potential confounding factors which  
could have skewed the results. For example, what if heavy mobile phone  
users in Hungary have particularly stressful lives and jobs?

IMHO misleading/one-sided posted quotes are worse than links to info that  
costs cash.  Both are bad, but only one will spread misleading impressions  
should a busy person not have the time to read carefully.
