[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1437639, member: 20599"] True story. When I was in my early 20s I went thru a serious health care. Dr. thought I had cancer (one of the ones that's only discovered at stage 4 and that has a 5 year survival rate of under 5%). I underwent exploratory surgery and came to in the oncology-surgery ward. My room was at the end of the hall by the smoking lounge. (This was late 80's). So as I lay in my bed in the onco ward for 3 days waiting to learn if I would live or die (of cancer!), I breathed in air that was fouler than a Dublin bar. Now that Irish bars are smoke-free I'd love to go back. It took me a few months to get my lung function back after a trip there years ago. Just got back from Switzerland and was surprised by the high numbers of smokers. Hiked up 4 hours to a mountain hut, got there, and the guy right behind me on the trail came in and proceeded to chainsmoke while I was trying to enjoy the view and fresh air. On the one hand, I was PO'd. On the other hand, I was impressed by his lungs! [/QUOTE]
