if you breath in smoke from the burning part of a smoke, or get it in you eye, it burns; yet if you inhale it throught the filter it doesen't (at least not as bad)? it is all being burned the same. maybe it is less concentrated? maybe not as hot? -stumped kenny

i can stick my face in a cloud of my own smoke and get no pain of the eyes. it is the same for a non-filtered cigarett, i think.

and how could it be the filter if non-filtered ciggs don't hurt the lungs any more than ones with a filter? it is just stronger...

The filter takes out a lot of particulates, which is what irritates the eye and nasal passages. Directly inhaling smoke is very dangerous--that's why second-hand smoke is so bad.

It is because the filter is doing what it is supposed to do./

Stop playing games with the smoke and stop smoking.

its the same, it irritates your lungs when you first inhale then you get used to it, it burns your eyes because it is an irritant not because its hot
