Apparently...an' if you don' believe me, check out BBC.com...third-hand smoke causes cancer.

Alright, seriously....seriously?! My writer ain't a smoker, but damn. Even she ain't that desperate t' get smokin' banned. I'm agreein' with this guy:

Simon Clark, director of the smokers' lobby group Forest, remained sceptical.

He said: "The dose makes the poison and there is no evidence that exposure to such minute levels is harmful.

"That doesn't seem to matter, though. The aim, it seems, is to generate alarm in the hope that people will be stopped from smoking or will give up.

"The real danger is not third-hand smoke but propaganda dressed up as science. Until the evidence of harm is irrefutable, scientists and campaigners should resist the urge to tell us how to live our lives."
