smooth -
The CDC report I linked above goes into detail more on the "11" studies referenced above from Cato (who, by the way, has a couple more good con SHS articles that I read but won't reference)
There were 13 studies
11 of the 13 found a "positive association with exposure"
6 of the 13 "reached statistical significance" (i.e. greater than 5%).
In other words, of the referenced studies, less than half of them can "prove" SHS is a danger greater than chance.
--Chapter 1, Page 9, Paragraph 2
Anyway, we don't want to see more of you in Exhibition, if you know what I mean. Your avatar alone gets me in trouble with my wife.
BTW - I did read the articles about the EPA study. Rather than just provide one link mentioning the case, I wanted to show that many sources (from the left, middle and right) had mentioned it. After reading the article about the EPA study, I looked up the above study to see what they were referring to.
This is an afternoon discussion for me, not a formal debate (sound familiar???) so I think, given the fact that I am not devoting hours upon hours to this, I have done a healthy amount of research and not just posted soundbites.
