Curiouser and curiouser .... it appears that smoking is not longer bad enough. Now, by the act of smoking, we are also generating that evil, pernicious secondary smoke.
Just went you thought it couldn't possibly get any worse than being a smoker, you find that you are also a victim of secondary smoke. New research indicates that smokers are "at additional risk from breathing environmental tobacco smoke, contrary
to the prevailing assumption that such risks would be negligible in
comparison to those incurred by actually smoking."
Who would've thought? I'm not sure on how one differentiates between the two forms of smoke when considering the effects of smoking. I'm also not sure how someone could be performing research and be so thick-headed as to not realize that a smoker also exhales smoke.... but, hey, ... even Newton's laws had to be adjusted, so perhaps these Nobel candidates will eventually figure it out too.
