Furthermore, this is independent of smoking, diet, social class and exercise. This illustrates the weakness of the claim of a RR of 1.2 for passive smoking and heart attacks. All possible confounders can never be accounted for and, if the effect of the confounder is large compared to the claimed effect of passive smoking, as it is here, the evidence is drastically weakened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-21724039029452885522011-01-04T06:52:56.978+00:002011-01-04T06:52:56.978+00:00Perhaps if he admitted he was anti-smoker, instead...Perhaps if he admitted he was anti-smoker, instead of anti-tobacco, then he'd have gotten some media attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-42421904013191701262011-01-03T22:43:54.891+00:002011-01-03T22:43:54.891+00:00Ironically the tobacco industry may have been will...Ironically the tobacco industry may have been willing to sponsor him, but I think they've been banned.Trooper Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01505221473081871071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-17974862876893418612011-01-03T19:04:38.751+00:002011-01-03T19:04:38.751+00:00He should have sat down at the end of the journey ...He should have sat down at the end of the journey and enjoyed a 'Hamlet Moment' and all would be wellXopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387364739989208360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585028625507474093.post-89734272846973420132011-01-03T16:14:25.484+00:002011-01-03T16:14:25.484+00:00Why doesn't he double his money by running all...Why doesn't he double his money by running all the way back to Vancouver?JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05239651363530826401noreply@blogger.com
