In Reply to: RE: Lung cancer in smokers vs non smokers, all breathing the same air posted by Tweaker456 on April 11, 2017 at 09:19:11
isn't there a threshold of smoking where smokers are indistinguishable from non-smokers?
Something like 1 Ciggy per day? Or a couple per week, if that's even possible?

Indistinguishable in what way PG? There is immediate vasoconstriction at the very least. Not to mention the smell and their advertising themselves to the world as being overtly a willfully self destructive.

Sorry I wasn't clear: My fault:
By 'Indistinguishable', I mean STATISTICALLY for purposes of Disease.
I suspect that at some point in smoking FEW Ciggies, that the disease profile becomes the same as for the general population who has NEVER smoked or quit 20 or 30 years past.
Given how Toxic Ciggies are, I'd further suspect the level to be very low. Maybe <1 per day to yield the same profile as a non-smoker.
I understand that even non-smokers, like from some religious groups will occassionally get a smoking related disease. It's a statistical thing, I suppose.

"Healthy living is NO guarantee of health." You got that right PG along with the difficulty of knowing what healthy living even is. Pretty sure that smoking almost any amount isn't part of it. I think most people learn that by the time they are 8 years old. Why so many ignore it is beyond my understanding. Pizza, chocolate cake, candy bars, grilled steak, unprotected sex, I can understand those. Smoking, nah.

We may be so close to 100% agreement as to render further conversation on this subject a waste of bandwidth.
Now? If we could get the Borg to start Smoking, we may get somehere.

No thanks PG, but I do have first hand knowledge that the Borg demagnetizes their cds.

Is that a BORG joke? If so, not funny. Borg are nothing to laugh at.
Besides, everyone knows that the Borg, from cube to 'unit', emit enough RFI to screw up ANY un-shielded electronics.
'First hand knowledge', Eh? You part of the collective doing pre-assimilation scouting? Could Bullethead be correct?

I couldn't pass the 'Bullethead Physical'.
Must be able to eat a Metric Ton of pizza per year
Must be able to smoke your weight in Ciggies per year
Must have 6 locks per door and window.

Good Pictureguy, this means you will be assimilated. No joke!

I'd contaminate the collective with wacky ideas.
Besides, politicians LOVE the 'sheeple' to act like the collective, anyway. I just can't manage that.

Sure PG. You're special. Right. Resistance is futile. You WILL be assimilated.

Not that we won't ALL eventually be assimilated, but it's How you conduct yourself in the meantime.And yes, I AM special. But for what it's worth, so are you! You just treat everyone as Drain Bamaged and get what'cha pay for.
I'm trying to spend more time listening. I think everyone should.

I think you meant brain damaged PG. I rest my case, or maybe not?

Looks like I was wrong. You have already been assimilated.
