Aug 17, 2011 - Many people did have many respiratory diseases and illnesses because of campfires. I think you're even taking it for granted how clean your air is as a result of having lights in your home instead of an open fire.

Aug 20, 2011 - bullshit. i have a friend at work that is a big time pothead. he works his ass off. he is working 37 hours of overtime this week for a total of 77 hours worked in a single week. lazy i think not. i have smoke pot myself sometimes, but infrequently. alcohol will make you incapable of functioning, you can still function when stoned. at least much better than when drunk

Nov 7, 2011 - As a matter of fact, you would. Burning 10 pounds of wood for an hour produces 4300 times more carcinogens than 30 cigarettes. He's correct in that nicotine does not cause cancer, but many of the "toxic" chemicals found in a pack of cigarettes are often found in common materials as well, and getting these chemicals into your lungs is never good. That's why firefighters, including non-smokers, are at a much higher risk of getting cancer than the rest of the population.

Nov 21, 2011 - if it wasn't FIRE CURED and was fresh green leaf just like any other salad, he probably would not have cancer, as a green uncured tobacco leaf has no polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and has only infinitesimal nitrosamines (which form when nitrogen oxides from combustion react with alkaloids in the leaf). as long as he doesn't take enough to overdose it would be fine. He may actually reduce his risk for cancer due to the anticancer tobacco cembranoids. I shit you not. look em up

Apr 12, 2012 - Hehe some types of lettuce those under the genus lactuca produce a sap that has similar effects to opium so couch lock Is the near future for this guy.

Apr 13, 2012 - Without Autotune, this guy just sounds like a douchebag.
MisterNickOtine Says:
Apr 24, 2012 - not really. modern smokeless tobacco, which delivers nicotine is not statistically associated with any causal relationship to major diseases. (cancer risk of american moist snuff pubmed 19638245 and swedish snus pubmed 21163315) most studies of smokeless tobacco and cardiovascular disease show NO association according to the AHA's own data (Circulation 2010, 122:1520-1544), some show a slight or low negative impact. no where near that of smoking.
MisterNickOtine Says:
Apr 24, 2012 - are you actively inhaling with your head over the fire? in toxicology it is the dose that makes the poison.
