Phillip Morris are known to have a Smoking Lounge in the airport at Atlanta GA.
Persumably this is a Marlboro lounge ? Ian Hacking is known to have visited this
lounge, but is it known who supported the work in terms of filters, air handling,
building etc etc
Phillip Morris are known to have an Air Quality Information office in New York City
where advice and and information could be had, do we know anything further than
I have in my possession a document called 'Developing a Smoking Lounge' issued by R
J Reynolds. I understand that there are similar documents for both restaurants and
bars, where can I find copies of these 9. Also do Phillip Morris have similar documents
available ? "-~r~j ~ ~'~" ~ ~
R J Reynolds are also seeking to relate bio-fluids and nicotine deviratives therein ~
function of smoky room air flow I ventilation. \
Both Phiilip Morris and R J Reynolds have sought to endorse their work on reducing~
ETS in rooms by ventilation through the CORESq~scientifie subcommittee, believi.'n~
Jhat within 5 years there will be a TOTAL SMOKING BAN in public places. L~ ~ !
~ lep~:~ ~ .~ ~)~-,~. #ll'~=~'l'llt-$ -~-.,
An organisation called Centre for Indoor Air Research (CIAR) exists in the USA and
funded by tobacco companies other than BAT, what is known about them apart from
the fact that they offer information on smoking and room ventilation 7 What is known
is that the EPA will discredit any university research macl~by CIAR simply because of
the tobacco company links.
