You need to meet my 71 year old brother. After farming he was a heavy equipment operator for 30 years. Dr say he has only 25% lung capacity. Dr asked him if he was a coal miner?
Other brother sucked on a nebulizer 6 times a day before he died, lung issues.
Dr's have no idea where the 100's of black spots in my lungs came from, not to mention the golf ball tumor. Glad I don't have lung cancer. Glad I never smoked. I do everything I can to protect my lungs. I have respirators, charcoal filters and all, on my tractors, mowers and one in the truck. I hate wearing them, but really no choice until I get a tractor with a climate controlled cab.

Times are changing, thanks to the medical research and the EPA acting on that information.
