Read the first link through, all I saw was a study that

said "we were
successful in cutting down on second hand smoke (we

think)"... Nothing
to do with the discussion we were having about the effects

of second
hand smoke... And you wonder why I don't read his posts?

Really? That's all you got out of it? Can you read?

Link #1's first few sentences:

Secondhand smoke is a major cause of morbidity and

mortality. It has
been associated with serious health problems in both

children and
adults. Efforts to reduce exposure to secondhand smoke in

Nebraska have
included programs to prevent tobacco use among young people

and
campaigns for smoke-free workplaces and homes. Despite these
interventions, young people continue to be exposed to

secondhand smoke
at an unacceptably high rate


Link #2's first few:

Every authoritative, peer-reviewed assessment of the

scientific evidence
over the years has concluded that Secondhand smoke causes a

lengthening
list of diseases.

The only dissent has come from Big Tobacco and the

scientists and
organizations affiliated with it. Researchers supported by

Big Tobacco
are eighty-eight times more likely than independent

researchers to
conclude there is no evidence that Secondhand smoke is

dangerous.

The most current knowledge first...

The first studies showing that Secondhand smoke causes

respiratory
problems in children were published over thirty years ago.

First
evidence that Secondhand smoke causes lung cancer was

published in 1981.
Since then, the list of dangers has steadily grown. This

page sums up
the major, independent, consensus statements produced by

scientific
bodies since 1985, most recent first.

2006 US Surgeon General. The Health Consequences of

Involuntary Exposure
to Tobacco Smoke. California Environmental Protection

Agency. Update of
the landmark 1986 Surgeon General's report. Emphasizes the

effects of
secondhand smoke on the heart, particularly the fact that

effects occur
within minutes to increase the risk of a heart attack.

Confirms that
there is no economic effect of smokefree laws on the

hospitality
industry, and concludes the ventilation systems cannot

control
secondhand smoke. Full report

Effects Causally Associated with Secondhand Smoke
Lung cancer
Coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
Low Birth Weight
Lower respiratory illnesses in infants and children
Middle ear disease in children (including otitis media and

chronic
middle ear infusion)
Respiratory symptoms in children (cough, phlegm, wheeze, and
breathlessness)
Asthma in children
Reduced development of lung function in children


Yep, keep telling yourself that second hand smoke is good

for your
children.

Where is the data?

Can you not read???

Where are the links to the documents? You have read them

haven't you.
You do have their URLs handy?
He posted a list, I spent some good time reading the first one,

but it
had NOTHING to do with the effects of second hand smoke.... Just

a feel
good article to explain another $tudy at another university. Feel

good
seems to be the most reliable science for them. Just like Global

Taxing...


Here you go, and BAR too!! Now, please post your "peer reviewed
articles" that claim that second hand smoke is not harmful.

Need more, just ask!


More more more
Thanks


All propaganda... full of "may cause" and "thought to cause" and "we
think".. and of course... "I Feel" which is the basis of all of these
studies... I have read several of them now, not one has really been
what it was supposed to be...


It still hasn't provided the peer reviewed studies.
