    does asbestdos take time to go into yout lungs and kill you? or can you just breath it in and it will still have the same effect?

    Smoking 2 cigarettes is as dangerous 4 hours exposure to disturbed Asbestos dust (airborne dust)

  3. Comic Book Blog

    Workers who developed asbestos-related disease often spent years in clouds of asbestos dust, spraying insulation inside ships or weaving fireproof cloth at textile mills. They worked in places that might have a typical asbestos dust level of 10 fibers per cubic centimeter of air – enough to cause 20% of workers exposed for 20 years to develop lung cancer or mesotheliorna, a fatal cancer of the lung’s lining.

    Asbestos, like Salmonella, is blown out of proportion, you have to be in an industry where you work with it in some way to actually get long term effects. living in a house that has it wrapped around the hot water pipes isn’t going to hurt you at all…. it’s an amazing and wonderful natural mineral that can still be used safely. it’s still used in oven door gaskets and brake pads because it wont burn. it’s an unmatched insulator as well. If you work with it, wear a mask. it’s that simple.

    Zonolite is trimoloite: the worst kind of asbestos. Be careful!

    if people in the future only use stuff’s from after 1973 will they not find asbestos but if they in the future use or play with stuff’s from the 30′s/40′s/50′s/60′s will people also in the future gets cancer.

    It surely won’t. Asbestos is highly dangerous when inhaled. Thousands, and thousands construction workers who worked with this stuff died. And they are still dieing.

    You probably won’t see asbestos in the future. Unless you get mechanical lungs or something

    WOW this is a miracle! surely everything will be made of asbestos in the future!

    It might not have much asbestos in it. the save level is .0001% I just got the zonolite (a type of vermiculite insulation) tested and it is in that safe level because its .0001% in the air and not in the insulation itself. Your best bet would to be get it tested, because unless your redoing any rooms or anything its fine as long as its not getting moved. ALS labs does testing and they have offices all over. :-)

    Too bad you can get cancer in a matter of days with this…

    Because it sure look sweet.

    I think I might suffer from Asbestos when I’m older because me and my friends have been going in this abandoned factory for quite some time now (about a year) and it was only today that we seen a sign that said “Warning Asbestos” and my some of my friends was outside and they was throwing bricks and stones on the roof to try and make us scared.
