Post #244,757 by admin 2/15/06 5:14:52 PM Reply	Uh, no. Both situations have a pre-existing medical condition and an external exacerbation. Are you in sophist mode or something today? This is getting tiresome. Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
Post #244,764 by drewk 2/15/06 5:23:49 PM Reply	I'm the sophist? Someone with a peanut allergy is exposed to peanut. Peanut was the only factor. Someone with fatty deposits on their arteries is exposed to smoke. Multiple factors. One was the trigger, one was the underlying condition. === Purveyor of Doc Hope's [link\|http://DocHope.com\|fresh-baked dog biscuits and pet treats]. [link\|http://DocHope.com\|http://DocHope.com]
