I was wondering whether anybody on this net would be willing to give me information dealing with asbestos and its effect on the body. How does it cause cancer? What are the statistics on its rate of cancer causing? Since when has this been known? How dangerous is it in regard to other carcinogens? Would anyone have information on this subject or could you refer me to some source? Thanx -Craig JDW
