    This is more abbreviated than the one I read linked in another section of the forums here.

    Yahoo left out where the nitrous acid is coming from. Most of it comes from "unvented gas appliances".

    The only appliance I can think of that's natural gas and not vented is a gas stove; however, the Berkley Lab study does not mention what "unvented gas appliances" they are referring to. I would think if they were referring to a stove they would mention it and what percentage of the population uses one just to make their point.

    If your natural gas furnace and/or hot water heater aren't vented, you have a much more immediate problem than "third-hand smoke"!

    The Berkley study also notes that "MOST" vehicles "MAY" emit "SOME" nitrous acid which "MAY" enter the passenger compartment.

    I wonder what the carbon footprint is of the Indoor Environmental Berkley Lab? Seems like they are making 'busy-work' for themselves....

    You have GOT to be kidding me. The actual amounts have to be the biggest joke of the "study" and it's "findings" Interestingly they aren't shown? Hmmmmmm
