A New Cigarette Hazard: ‘Third-Hand Smoke’

Third-hand smoke is what one smells when a smoker gets in an elevator after going outside for a cigarette, he said, or in a hotel room where people were smoking. “Your nose isn’t lying,” he said. “The stuff is so toxic that your brain is telling you: ’Get away.’”

Funny, that pounding sensation in my head when I read the New York Times tells me something similar.  I wonder, if I walk into a room and see a copy of the New York Times that someone has recently read, will I get dumber too?
