What did I get for the engine? It would strike me as odd except I had a customer from Lebanon who called the compressors at his restaurant, engines. ^_^

I don't know what "people" you're talking to--but they must be different people. It is probably true that radon, probably the second most important cause of lung cancer isn't given the attention it deserves (in most parts of the country). Otherwise air quality has improved markedly over the years--probably on account of we don't manufacture much anymore--and restrictions on coal. Water is another story, of course, though the adoption of unleaded gasoline improved things for some. But I'm not giving smokers a free pass here, and while I have some sympathy to all addicts, it doesn't grant a license to assault others.

Sorry I wasn't around for the rant. I confess I had to google "thromboxane"--my knowledge of clotting and coagulation mechanisms is woefully out of date. My brother is starting a pharma course from MIT open courseware--he's just purchased a bunch of pharma texts (and one on craniofacial syndromes--just for fun.

Not anymore. When I was in high school when I left the subway in Fort Greene there was the combined odor of a nearby slaughterhouse mixed with a nearby electrical plant, which I believe was still coal-fired. There isn't much industry here anymore, and unless you're on the BQE most areas are OK.

The simple solution is to start smoking. If you smokw, you wont notice it.
Do you have separate furnaces or do both places share the same forced air heating system?

obviously to smoke has muddled your mind...........
in pennsylvania foster parents arent permitted to smoke anywhere near the kids they care for.
this is a excellent first step to criminilze smoking around kids.
seconhand smoke can cause lots of troubles for children including ear infections and breathing problems.
even the smoke left on parents clothes can make kids ill......
face facts smoking is on its way out, its dying;:) just like smoking kills its users

My parents smoked. I had a lot of ear infections. One got untreated too long, and damaged my hearing. I've been wearing hearing aids since age 6. And will do so for the rest of my life.

No, just pointing out that you're an illiterate fool.
Who cares? This has nothing to do with the post you answered, showing, once again, that you can't read.
Idiot.
What a moron.

My parents didn't smoke. I had a lot of ear infections. I've had some pretty damned severe cases too. I didn't smoke. Guess what. My son had *severe* ear infections, bad enough that I had to really put my foot down or they were going to install "tubes". Go figure.
Not sure why we're answering Halliburton's nutcase post, though.

Believe what you want to believe, but it sounds like your parents didn't take you to the doc soon enough. Even if it were from cig smoke ( which is doubtful), it is ultimately your parents fault (according to your statement above). They should be jailed for child abuse.

You reccomend incarceration based on the minimal evidence of a Usenet post? I sure hope you're not a magistrate. Nor, a doctor.
