non rational drug using kids.
GregFL:
my mom smokes while on her oxygen,and also goes on a breathing treatment just to open her lungs up enough to permit a cigarrette.
Johnny G:
have you ver seen a canula fire? think of a fuse in the cartoons. I touched an ash to the end of a tube connected to an oxygen unit as part of a science experiment with the kids and it blew me away how fast it burned back toward the unit.
we get burned up units all the time, from lawyers trying to sue us - the cause of the fire is always external to the unit.
your mom has probably done all the damage to herself with the cigarettes that she can, but the risk of fire cannot be understated.
A piece of copper tube in the canula tube might provide a firebreak.
be careful out there
perhaps a non rational adult using drugs?

Seth and Johnny G, you guys were hard-core smokers - I remember Seth rolling out of bed and lighting up. Kools. Johnny G, you had Merits or something else vile like that. I smoked Kools when I worked with big Jim H. at the plating company, 'cause he did. Later I was a respiratory therapist and I pretty much quit. When I was 30, I married a young woman from art school - it was cool to smoke and she would light up in the shower! I finally got her to quit - about the same time she asked for a divorce.
I smoked a bit a year or two ago - like one a day or so. I started to see myself get hooked again, it's so so easy.
Seth, I am glad you did OK post heart attack. One of my coworkers went the same route, and he no longer smokes!

absolutely and without a doubt she is non rational about her 'drug' usage. She will drink or smoke to the detriment and exclusion of everything else. She will choose cigarretes over her children and to the diminishment of what little time she has left on this earth. And she is not alone. It is said that cigarrette addiction/compulsion is a stronger urge than injectable drugs. Which brings me full circle...
how ironic was it that (at least until art quit in 1980) that cigarrette smoking was not only acceptable but part of the cultural of being a seedling? I mean, here we are, mostly non-addicts, being subjected to extreme experimental mind control techniques and addiction treatment, and the only drug that we are in real danger of being addicted to is being freely offered to us and encouraged by cultural and peer pressure?
another insane idea brought to you by The early 70s seed.
Ft. Lauderdale:
Greg, sorry but you are sounding a little crazy to me. I think the whole world smoked back then. Think about all the things that have happened since . No Smoking in Movies was first, then malls and the restaurants government places then the world. Jesus Greg. I know you don't like the man, but he did alot of good even if he did smoke until 1980 or whenever.
