Darren, what is your purpose for posting such a fluff piece? We have known the health effects of pm 2.5 emissions for years, which is why the EPA has regulated the emissions from woodstoves for over 20 yrs. What they have failed to regulate are the emissions from forest fires, diesel trucks and industry.

So, what do you hope to achieve by posting this article?

I agree with you Bob; It's just another article that will get people scared.

I just posted it to see what the re-action would be.
