Default OT - For the smokers!

Passive smoking - more infomation for those addicted to the weed - it's
interesting to see that that they are now advising smokers with children to
partake of their fix outside rather than in the home - an excerpt and the
link are below.
He said: "Passive smoking at home, exposing children to smoke they cannot
escape from, increases the risk of them getting ear disease, sticky runny
noses and sore throats, and further down the track, some of these ENT
symptoms can in due course led on to worse diseases such as asthma."

He added: "We need to keep banging the drum. We need to publicise the fact
that every cigarette you smoke is a cigarette that your child is smoking
also."

That was taken from this link
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/m...de/7284793.stm and posted to
re-ignite (argh!) the subject after that rather long thread in Mosquito
Repellent - things are getting a little dull at the moment!

Enjoy!
