purething, while children of mothers and/or fathers who smoke have more asthma than other children ( a statistic which would seem to prove that second hand smoke is quite dangerous), there are many other environmental causes of asthma. So you cannot really use the asthma argument to prove that second hand smoke is less dangerous than some of us think it is.

Purething,

As was discussed on this and another thread earlier this year, some previously healthy people actually develop bonafide medical problems, including asthma, upon cessation of smoking. I personally know of several.

BTW, Janice is going to be sorry that she wasn't here for this discussion. I believe she is the one who broached this correlation during our earlier smoking discussions.
