Just FYI to all you bong smokers out there. Water has absolutly zero carconigen removing affects. All it does is make the smoke drop in temperature and therefor seem less harsh. In fact, its been proven that the ratio of thc in the smoke will be reduced, making the smoke less potent and more dangerous for your health. Just thought you guys might want to know that. PM me for sources.

so all the black ashes and shit in the bong water is not harmful to your lungs?

it seems the water cools the smoke, which cause the nasties to cool and join causing them to be heavier than air. by let the smoke swirl in the bong these heavy particles gather to the inner surfaces of the bong. some thc is lost i'm sure. that why scraping get you high. but i feel the benefits out weigh the costs.

this is my opinion, that's all. not to be confused with any factual information.

Sorry INeedBud, but, I can't believe that. In fact, if you read up on it a little bit more you will find out that high temp smoke is the main thing hurts your lungs. There are other things that damage it but, high temp smoke is the number one cause. Water might lower the THC but, it does clean the smoke and ash; it is a lot more healthier for your lungs. Its just a proven fact man. Water CLEANS things. Period....
