Well...I guess that's it. Even though I have a no smokin policy in my home and smoke outside always, as there is no smoking in any bars and restuarants where I live, I am slowly poisoning the world and MY CHILD through my hair and clothing with third hand smoke. I don't know how my fifteen year old managed to be so healthy. I should be put in jail for my blatant disregard for the rest of the human population. Maybe they should find a special contaminated island for all smokers to go. That is after they take away their children for third hand smoke abuse......Yeesh

Wow! I try never to smoke around my kids.

I thought, if I make the choice to hurt myself that way is one thing.. I guess the safiest way is to quit.

I'm glad this is getting attention. With all of the other toxins we are worried about and that papers write about, cigarette smoke is still far worse than anything else you can encounter in your everyday life. (For example, I spoke to someone recently who got rid of her Nalgene bottle for fear of contact with BPA, but still smokes a pack of cigarettes a day. Unbelievable.)

Those toxins are carried in an oily susbstance that clings to everything. Your carpets, drapes, walls, lungs. Gross!
