Lung cancer does not necessarily have anything to do with smoking.
My grandfather died from it, and he never touched a cigarette in his
life. However, his employer felt fit to downplay the risks of working
with asbestos without any protection for years. For a dozen years, he
fought to get simple things, like mouth caps when sawing up boards

what a blow to the copmpany that would be!
