that hookah smokers are
also breathing in a nasty
collection of toxic
chemicals, not the least
of which is benzene. Due
to its high octane number,
benzene is a percentage
component of gasoline.
(During my high school
summers, I worked in a
plastics factory and
transferred benzene-
based liquids into
smaller containers.
Twice during this task,
I collapsed, dizzy as could
be from the chemicals.
Even when I smoked, I
didn't trust hookahs-
something about the
overwhelming nature
of the fumes.) Dangerous
stuff to breathe...
