I had not seen this. I did a search on the product name and found many news "stories" that all read the same. So I assume it is a mass press release paid for by the anti's as they do. I did find something that made me want to post. This statement here:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3996062/

"If you argue in court that secondhand smoke doesn't kill, they will laugh you out of court," said James L. Repace, a Beltsville-based air quality expert who has participated in dozens of battles nationwide over smoking restrictions. Repace said home tests could inspire more suits. "Once people find out they are exposed in such graphic terms, they get upset," he said.

I had not realized that the anti's had this much confidence in working our judicial system. Sort of got my attention. Anyone for encouraging the study of statistics and methodology to our children. I guess I had the mistaken belief that our courts would recognize bad science.

The ANTI's seem to pretty well own the judicial system these days.

Isn't Le Pace the guy even the EPA got rid of. ??
