Hi Group,

I recently read "Man out of Time" by Margaret Cheney.  I seem
to recall something about Tesla wanting to open up some Ozone
Parlors and charge admission.  He seemed to like the smell,
and side effects, yet everywhere i read about the dangers of
inhallation.  What are the dangers of ozone besides headaches,
and does it build up in the blood and have long term effects???

Dan
