[quote=BBC NEWS]Candle-lit dinners may be romantic, but researchers are warning they could be harmful to health.
South Carolina State University experts analysed the fumes released by burning candles in lab tests.
They found paraffin wax candles gave off harmful fumes linked to lung cancer and asthma - but admitted it would take many years' use to risk health.
UK experts said smoking, obesity and alcohol were much more important in terms of cancer development.
And even the researchers admitted occasional candle use was not something people should worry about too much. [/quote]

Good thing I live in a vacuum sealed, asbestos padded room with nothing but a laptop and a lifetime's supply of ham sandwiches.
No way I'm getting cancer now no sir.
It's all about amount. I heard that the red dye they used to use in bacon would kill you, but they didn't add the part about where you would need to be a mouse and eat a ton of it. Literally, a TON of bacon.

Ham can give you cancer.
The monitor of your laptop can give off radiation giving you cancer, etc.
Don't worry - worrying causes cancer
Oh for fuck's sake, that's ridiculous. I suppose now they're going to say that eating hot dogs gives you cancer.
Oh wait...
its just a cynical ploy to sell more chemo from the big pharmacuticals
Why are they even studying what links to cancer? Eventually they're just going to say everything causes cancer.
