The Business Standard reporter was not the only one to get this message from the study and its authors. According to an at Medical Xpress: "Do not smoke and do not allow yourself to be exposed to smoke because second-hand smoke and third-hand smoke are just as deadly as first-hand smoke, says a scientist at the University of California, Riverside who, along with colleagues, conducted the first animal study of the effects of third-hand smoke."

The unfortunate part of the story is that California taxpayers funded this proposal to the tune of a quarter of a million dollars. What a waste of money. They could have saved the money because the researchers had already drawn their conclusions. Why waste the money on actually conducting research when the conclusions of that research have already been drawn, and disseminated!

There are clearly two ways to spin this study. One is to emphasize the study's reassuring findings that there were no substantial causes for serious concern. Another is to spin it as these authors did, stating their conclusion as follows:
