you know it is much more dangerous to live in a home with a bird than with someone who smokes cigarettes. No kidding! Even the left centered EPA a few years back released some reports classifying carcinogens, tobacco smoke rated a C, and inconclusive of the potential harm it could cause. By the EPA's own report, birds in a house rated as the most dangerous, much more than tobacco smoke, apparently because of the bird droppings. So why don't we ever hear about that, especially when more dangerous than second hand cigaretter smoke? Parrots haven't been politicized. And when I say dangerous, don't take me wrong, I mean birds are more dangerous, that still doesn't mean go out and shoot them, the risks are still small, but the risks of second hand smoke even less.
