Pipe Smoking Experiemnt

Post by prolax14 »

Hey guys,
In my Psychopharmacology Lab we did an experiment to see how much cigarette smoke contaminants get into your lungs. After smoking 1 filterless cig there was approx. .20 Mg of contaminants and after 1 filtered cig there was around .14 Mg..... so after class we asked if we could try the experiment to see how bad pipe smoking was if you inhaled constantly. When we did the experiment there we packed a full chamber and simulated it like the person would be inhaling each puff. I was surprised to find out that there was only .10 Mg of contaminants at the end of the entire bowl. Im not sure how you guys puff/inhale when you smoke but i rarely inhale :thumbsup: . . . just thought you might find this interesting :D

Thanks,
Zach Klein

Good luck trying to get that info out to the Kool-Aid drinking populace. They only want the "truth".

Tobacco made of Mormons tends to have more carcinogens than non-Mormons, or so iv heard. :lol:

I'm glad somebody finally did this. Good work, guys, even if no Mormons were smoked during the experiment. :mrgreen:

The safety of Mormons aside, what would it take for me to get you to do the same with a stronger tobacco - like Balkan Sasieni, Byzantium, or 1792?

I'm fascinated by what might be uncovered - good or bad!
