Tolerance? Let me put it this way: My father was a smoker when I was young, so was the nanny hired to take care of me as a baby. On my right arm, I can still faintly see the cigarette burn I got from when I was less than 6months old. I suffered from childhood asthma and am still dealing with respiratory allergies till this day. Studies have shown that children exposed to cigarette smoke during the early years of life develop less lung capacity and the effects are permanent.

The RC clubhouse is used by more than just adults. I plan to bring my son to the RC flying field in a few years. If any smoker wants us to tolerate their smoking in the Clubhouse... well, he/she will have to tolerate a few unleasantness from me as well.

How exactly does the presence of other pollutants in the air make second hand smoke okay? That's like saying: hey, that tap water you're drinking has chlorine, cyst, trace amount of copper, lead and other heavy metals in it, so here, let me pee in it a little - it's all bad for you anyway, right.?

Anybody care to tolerate a little pee water?
