and just as a matter of interest, what do you base that statistic on?
is it your straw poll or can you access some research that has yet to be reported?
are the people with cystic fibrosis, cerebral palsy, CVA's, etc etc etc included in this poll?
are the people with industrial lung problems or the victims of James Hardy included? a lot of them didnt smoke...
what about others with congenital lung problems or O2 insufficiency, are they included?
my point is, not all people in wheelchairs with O2 bottles have ever smoked nor have they been subjected to second hand smoke.
its a fact, as is the fact that a lot of people who smoke will not have any problems as a result of smoking.
some do, some dont....
Have you ever been a smoker?
