Do you think it would be ok with you if a non-smoker sprayed bottled
sewer gas that contained various dangerous chemicals randomly where
people would have no choice but to inhale that gas?

Why do smokers believe they have a right to poison the air other people
breath?

Depends on the levels of the sew gas and the chemicals that that non
smoker sprayed around.

If he were spewing out .005 parts per million..Id think he would not
be liable for much of anything

How about the equivalent to this:

Secondhand smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals. Hundreds are toxic
and about 70 can cause cancer.

Woman aged 112 says her secret to long life is smoking 30 cigarettes ...

26 Jan 2016 - A 112-year-old woman claims the secret to a long life is
smoking .... Meet the world's oldest best man who organised the stag do
aged 102 ...


There's always someone who appears immune when many people get sick.

Do you recommend her 30 cigarettes a day as a lifestyle?

No.

Do you recommend that she goes cold turkey on her smokes?


Yes.


Ill bet you do. Snicker...Ill bet she is making you sick, isn't she?

The head doctors have a term for your illness.

Psychosomatic


You should talk to former smokers who have since quit.


Talk about second hand smoke? If I talk to smokers..that would be
from the First Hand Smoke point of view, no? Or do they also suffer
from "second hand smoke" being around other smokers?

Ive been a non smoker on many occasions for periods up to a year or
more. Was it better to be a non smoker? Of course it was. I was
also 30 lbs heavier at one time. Is it better to be thinner? Of course
it is. And?


Why was it better for you to be a non-smoker?


Oh, I could taste food better, smell odors better, and I could run
farther and longer..up to a point.

On the other hand...I was something of a nervous wreck. Im very hand
oriented. Very oral oriented (my wife appreciates this) and as a very
good tech..I tend to spend most of my day with a cigarette jammed into
my face..but its been out for 20 minutes. I use up more lighters than
the average smoker and I actually inhale less smoke than the average
pack a day smoker. I simply hold one in my mouth until it turns wet
and nasty. Not intentionally...just a 48 yr old habit. Im not proud
of it..but Ive learned to live with it. Ive spent hundreds of dollars
on hypnosis (works for me on average of 4-6 months) and all manner of
Stop Smoking classes and materials and so on and so forth. But...I
cant stay away from them..my temprament is such that without my
"pacifier" stuck in my face..I can..and do..turn into a rather vicious
and nasty human being. I discovered this in the military..which my
team mates appreciated..but didnt do my self esteem all that much
good. "the guy was a very effecient killer as long as he had a smoke
stuck in his face". Shrug...so Ive learned to live with my physical
and pyschological addiction. Ive monitored my health closely the past
20 yrs or so...and the smoking doesnt seem to have much effect. My
genetics are rather good. The males in my family all live into their
late 90s, smoking and drinking and having their way with womenfolk. My
father just remarried at the age of 83. He married a 47 yr old woman
who has oddles more money than he does and by accounts..they have a
very active life...to say nothing of their sex life...(VBG)

Anyways...did I answer your questions in a forthright and honest
fashion? I dont lie. Too hard to keep track of them if one starts..so
I dont bother. Shrug
