This is from 27 days near my furnace in mostly moderate air , now double
that in bad air days. This is less then one month, multiply that by years
and you get an idea what people are breathin and why they are poisoning
people in NE. Why we might even have 34,000 kids everyday not going to
school. Why one in five kids in some areas of ne are needing asthma meds.
Here is your proof.
