    Well alright pipers make up a very small percentage of the world population and conclusive evidence is scant because of that, if you choose to read it that way. But if it were me, I would not ignore it.

    I well remember when evidence of 'farmers lung"started hitting the headlines and the then scant evidence was not only scoffed at, it was ignored for far, far too long. Almost a sense of bravado prevailed and the excuses used to ignore the very real risks were exactly like the ones used here in this thread now. The end result was far too many good men and women died ------ and are still dying----- not a very nice death well before their time, leaving many a farming family in great distress. No one in farming today, if they have any sense, scoffs or ignores "farmers lung" now.

    Just saying.
