Okay ABF, I'm against smoking for the most part, but I'm going to have to disagree with you. People can smoke their whole abbreviated life without developing lung cancer, while others it can form more quickly. We still don't know a lot about cancer. I may not be pleased having to inhale seocnd-hand smoke but I'm not concerned about getting lung cancer from it.
I know your proof is there, but consider. If you had to live with a smoker and were always around them, then yeah, you <i><b>might</i></b> develop some lung disorder. However exposure to tobacco for short periods of time with long gaps between them may be uncomfortable and annoying, but not life-threatening.
If you sit by a smoker in a restaurant, you'll cough, but you won't die.
