Truth be told, I think smoking is rather nasty since it makes me hyper-sensitive to my real allergies, the smoke itself doesnt seem to set me off, but will really agravate the heck out of me if I am already suffering from an attack of cat exposure.

Just out of curiosity do you know of any good sites that get the data straight from the sources pre-spin? I am intersted in hard sciences of all sorts.
I couldnŽt agree more MagiK. [img]smile.gif[/img] Every time I read a "scientific" article in the morning paper I tend to roll my eyes, then scream a little at the paper.

For scientific papers, the best site would be PubMed. It is an index of every medical/scientific publication published the last 20 years in every scientific magazine. This is true scientific material, if you are looking for reviews (publications witout the used methods etc) I strongly recommend Science or Nature. Both are extrmemly good!

Pubmed is located here: http://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=PubMed
Just a note to this link. I do not know if you are able to access the fulltext articles. I can, through work, access most of them. If you find something interesting let me know (my email is in my profile) and IŽll email you the full articles. [img]smile.gif[/img]
