Microwave crowd control; hard on cellphones and camcorders

[Casey Halverson]

"The beams are designed to penetrate clothing and then travel less than
half a millimeter into the skin. Within seconds, the beam heats the skin
to around 120 degrees."

hmmm...i take nice hot showers at about 120F-125F.  That sounds nice
actually.
