Re: Not optimistic

What's missing is that the "molecular absorption" talked about can include highly specific resonance modes of individual biomolecules

Gives a whole new meaning to the adjective "hardboiled".

One hopes that their list of unsuitable frequencies includes the resonance frequencies of C-H, C-C, C-O, etc, bonds. But that's only for properly functioning equipment? OTOH, I don't live my life in fear of the Microwave Oven in our kitchen even though I have little doubt it could could kill me if it had sufficient motivation.

Note to self: Be nicer to the microwave.
