John Stossel was talking about common myths on Dateline, and second-hand smoke was one of them. He researched this and found that virtually all of the studies have been conducted in families with smokers where there is constant and intense exposure.

I am not surprised by that, as studying waitresses, bartenders, office mates, etc., would create enormous control problems and would make reliability impossible.

Personally, I give zero credibility to the Surgeon General's pronouncements, because I think there is no scientific way to prove the case.
