Nobody is safe anywhere...

The "Whatever-hand Smoke" number keeps climbing. We are now up to "Tenth-hand Smoke".

I will agree that "First-hand Smoke" is not a good thing for most people. Even though the science behind the risk of "Second-hand Smoke" is extremely questionable, I will allow that interviewing people with cancer, who claim that they never smoked, could possibly be right. However, once the list of the "Whatever-hand Smoke" grows to ten, I have to say this is NUTS...!

Here it is:

"Levels of the Legacy of Cigarette Smoke
Posted on October 4, 2010 by sensiblesmoker

First-Hand Smoke – Actual smoking

Secondhand Smoke – Actually being exposed to first-hand smoke

Third-Hand Smoke – Residue of secondhand smoke on clothing, furniture and walls

Fourth-Hand Smoke – Sight of real people smoking outdoors or seeing a film, photograph or painting of a person(s) smoking indoors

Fifth-Hand Smoke – Seeing a building knowing for sure that people are smoking inside

Sixth-Hand Smoke – Thinking that people just might be smoking in that building and thinking you might smell it

Seventh-Hand Smoke – Even though you looked in the window and the building is absolutely empty, completely quiet and the lights are off, you can smell something and you think it might be smoke

Eighth-Hand Smoke – Speaking to or thinking about a current smoker

Ninth-Hand Smoke – Speaking to or thinking about a person who used to smoke

Tenth-Hand Smoke – Thinking of or speaking to a deceased relative who used to smoke

Eleventh-hand smoke: Seeing an exoplanet and imagining that there may be "intelligent" iife forms on that planet that happen to smoke.

I think we should send out radio messages to that world in order to warn them!

Good idea, let me know what I can do to help out. I'm all in.

p.s. I've got to say that though from time to time we might disagree about some things, I respect your intellect, and I love you like a brother.
