I'm afraid, though, if you want me to get a huge sample, I'll have to seek IRB approval, so that might take some time.

BTW, Medline is free to the whole wide world, you know.

And that's just a handful of the second hand smoke studies.

BTW, I smoke cigars in the presence of my child, and I sleep very fucking well.

BTW2, I had a cancer scare a few years back. I asked about studies. To a doc, each of them said "stop reading epidemiological shit," it's at best a crude guide, and fails to explain so much.
