That’s some uniform

BoardBuzz was astounded to discover (hat tip to Boing Boing) that a Belarusian textile company (their announcement is only available in Russian) has developed a special school uniform that protects kids from?get this?electromagnetic radiation emanating from their cellphones! Now that’s innovation! Guess it’s time to toss those old tin foil hats.

The uniform sports a dedicated pocket specifically designed for students’ cell phones. We’re guessing it has some magic lining that traps the “harmful” radiation. The government is apparently very excited about it?or maybe just the Ministry of Trade official who reportedly delivered the news.

Now you may be wondering where did BoardBuzz learn Russian? Or maybe you’re worried about our coffee addiction. But in the spirit of Friday, all we have to say is Za zdarou’e!
