Donna G Posted November 9, 2003 Posted November 9, 2003 Went out for breakfast and picked up the St Paul Pioneer Press , it carries the Parade magazine. It has an article on lung cancer . I think when it said 90 % "are" smokers it was wrong , should have said about 50 % are smokers or 90 % are/ were former smokers. It also emphasized how important it is to have your house checked for Radon gas. I know Radon levels are particularly high in homes in the midwest.

Hebbie Posted November 10, 2003 Posted November 10, 2003 I read that article yesterday as well -- I was very happy that they were addressing LC, since many newspapers/magazines are still going strong with Breast Cancer information! Quote
Guest DaveG Posted November 10, 2003 Posted November 10, 2003 I read the article as well. Generally the information was good, with the exception as Donna noted. I was glad that he addressed the Radon issue, as that should make people realize that smoking is not the ONLY factor involved with lung cancer Quote
