Ozone Can Damage The Lungs
By Jim Heyworth

Hi Folks!  Just a quick reminder from a medical point of view.

Ozone is a highly reactive gas which can be damaging to the lungs.
So before getting out that old Model T Ford spark coil, and having
too much of a wonderful time amazing your friends or delighting in
the fragrance of a made-at-home sea breeze, consult your local
friendly respirologist.

Yes, I've attended many a lecture in halls with a purple glow at
the edges, but that was a long time ago.

Moderation is the word.
