Well, surprise, surprise!! Took them long enough to come to that conclusion :(. Did anyone stand behind a badly burning diesel engine and enjoy it?? Just like it took them decades to work out tobacco caused cancer - it's all smoke.

Thanks for posting Mountaineer :). The air on mountain tops is so much nicer ;).

Well – it wasn’t unknown. This was announced after a review – previously it had been in the ‘probably causes cancer’ category. Now it is on a par with passive smoking.
