Premature speculation.

This only proves that car and gas exhaust are dangerous. Tobacco has nothing to do with these other contaminats being emitted in to the air. These nitrous oxides are dangerous by themselves as a health risk. This bias report is continuing to add to hate and discrimination without justification. The real problem are the oxides.

@ Premature speculation

The article also mentions that the chemical is created by tobacco smoke itself - which means no matter how you slice and dice it or what other causes you eliminate, the very act of smoking creates the deadly combination itself.

Since cigarettes provide both parts of the problem, it seems the easiest thing to eliminate is them.
