[quote=LesBaer45][quote=njtosd]According to the South Carolina tobacco board, tobacco farming still is alive and well in the northeast, but doesn’t seem to be as common in the northwest (Greenville) area. This is an important difference, as nicotine is very volatile – if you stand in a tobacco field and breath it in, you can get a significant dose of nicotine. Not something I’d want next door . . .[/quote]
I swear I couldn’t stop laughing for 20 minutes.

Don’t worry, it won’t run out of the field and force you to smoke it or bite you in your ass.

Umm. . . . what are you laughing about? Nicotine is well know to be very volatile – my husband used to work for a company that made nicotine patches and the vials of nicotine that were used for the patches was treated with the same laboratory procedures as radioactive substances. Furthermore, I knew someone who grew up on a tobacco farm and he couldn’t get away from it fast enough – he said the smell made him sick. I think you’re over reacting a little . . .
