Though the solders of the 1960s didn't scar your lungs, the fluxes
in use nowadays are sufficiently diverse that a precaution or two might
be appropriate. Like air conditioning to prevent perspiration,
a bit of airflow so the work isn't upwind of your face might be a good
soldering-station idea. Consider the musical warning "Smoke gets in your eyes".
