I guess (my fault!) you missed my point, which was that cigarette smoke, or any other toxin, affects different people in different ways. So any generalizations, whether it's Mike Ditka's "Cigarette smoke won't hurt you!" or the tobacco nazis' line, are not applicable to everyone.

I can agree with that. Nothing has the same effect on everybody.

40 or 50 years ago you never heard of anyone being allergic to cigarette smoke. I am sure there were some, but after 30 years of being brainwashed by TV , news media, and the Cigarette Nazi's, the number of people allergic to cigarette smoke has probably risen 5000%.

I think you mean, "... not applicable to some."

Please say what you mean.
