My point was and is that it is extremely rare, not that it does not 
exist. As someone who currently has no detectable cancer, I have nothing 
but sympathy for anyone who has to go through that valley. Mine is not 
that rare.

The lawsuits and awards were more because of smoking than asbestos even 
though asbestos was blamed by juries. That was and is junk science.

As I noted, there are a lot of things that we inhale that cause 
problems, just smoking moves them from rare to common.
