    I have always heard CA led the country in people giving up smoking. It may be true. Living in the smog-filled areas around L.A. likely is damaging enough to the lungs, let alone filling them with additional smoke.

    I've only been to the airport in LA but Fresno has bad air also.

    When we were in the rented house, one neighbor had throat cancer. She was about 70 at that time and she was the one who told me about her cancer. She has several children in the US and she has been there for treatment but the cancer did not go away. My husband was a heavy smoker at that time and when I told him about it, he asked if the mister was a smoker. We just moved in the neighborhood so I still do not know the details. And my husband was right. The mister was a heavy smoker and probably that caused the throat cancer of the wife.

    After a few months, the husband died of lung cancer. And the wife followed him to the grave after almost a year.

    I prefer and hope to have neither. I was a smoker but I quit cold turkey 21 years ago.

    Throat cancer is often caused by the human papilloma virus.
