    Well, Bill, that attitude suggests that you're affected by having
    basically good health already, which can lead one to a certain sense
    of invulnerability and naivety. Younger people in particular are
    especially prone to this attitude. As a long term insulin dependent
    diabetic (37 years now, since I was 16)), I can assure you that if I
    didn't spend a good deal of time (literally at least a little
    attention every hour of every day) being concerned with and worrying
    over my health and it's continuing care, as well as paying attention
    to those things I need to do, and those I need to avoid, well, I'd
    have been dead at least 25 years ago, several times over. With that
    semi constant attention, however, while I've got some long term
    problems, I'm basically doing OK. Some of us cannot afford to take
    our health so much for granted. True indeed, that there is a lot of
    misinformation and outright false information out there. And one
    should not just jump on every new fear or bandwagon out there. But
    I've also known a couple now deceased metalsmiths who wished, while
    on their deathbeds, (and several more who fortunately are not quite
    yet at that stage, yet still too far along to undo the past) that
    they'd paid a lot more attention during their careers to their
    health, and subjects like ventilation, respirators, toxic materials,
    and the like.
