Yet Another Reason Smoking Is Bad For You

Another entry from the shallow end of the gene pool. A seventeen year old boy from Longview, Washington attempted to participate in two questionable actions at once. Unfortunately for him the combination had far worse immediate consequences than either one would have by itself. Early on New Years Day, while siphoning gas from a relative's car the young man also lit a cigarette. The boy now has first and second degree burns to his hands, feet, and pelvis.(ouch) and, hopefully, a better understanding of the effects of fire on gasoline for future reference.
