    Good point Chris and good chance I have. How do you tell, and is it more likely to be one or other ?

      My father was the Chief engineer down at James Hardies plant in Brooklyn for many years where they made tonnes of AC products and the stuff was everywhere.

      He never suffered from the disease and died of a heart attack...which is what worries me more at present.
      Apparently it only takes 1 fibre ...
