Only just spotted this post. I have never said that active smoking
isn't a cause of lung cancer, plenty of sound scientific evidence to
support that claim. However, the 'evidence' concerning passive
smoking is utter bollox.

Yep, the evidence given out by the tobacco companies about passive
smoking is complete bollox. Go back a generation and they were telling
everyone that low tar cigarettes were also safe.

The tobacco companies haven't published anything about the alleged dangers
of passive smoking.

If they could prove the data is wrong do you think they would have remained
silent?
They have a lot of money at stake to prove smoking is safer and they can't.
I take that to mean that the claims about passive smoking being dangerous is
true.
You may not agree but as stated you aren't the brightest handyman about.
