Indoor smoking continues to be a problem in Building E of the South 67 Condos.  Yesterday the smell could not be smelled for most of the day; it did start getting smelled later in the day, but didn't get strong enough to be a problem until 1 AM today.  Because the pollution was not strong enough yesterday to be a problem, I started using my headphones again at 9 PM, however started using my speakers again at 1 AM today when the pollution became strong enough to be a problem again.

Health problems from indoor pollution today:
  • Blurry Vision
  • Chest Pains
  • Coughing
  • Dizziness
  • Headaches
  • Migraines
  • Nausea
  • Ringing Ears
  • Sore Throat
UPDATE:  The indoor pollution has gotten particularly bad today, which really isn't surprising being Sunday (weekends are always the worst), however I was hoping that wouldn't be the case seeing as the pollution level didn't get strong enough to actually be a problem yesterday (until 1 AM this morning).  I've smelled both the spice/incense/cover-up smell & cigarette smoke early this morning, both of which are believed to be coming from E26.  The first in the list has been confirmed to be coming from E26 as well as other units in the past, however only E26 & E28 has been able to get that smell in the problem area in my unit from their units; it's still unconfirmed as to what it actually is, but I expect drugs (spice) or cover-up for cigarette smoke.  The cigarette smoke has been verified to be coming from E26 in the past (literally saw somebody doing it in that unit about 2 years ago), so considering cigarette smell is only smelled when the spice/cover-up smell is smelled (most of the time cigarette smoke is not smelled, but sometimes the cigarette smoke gets strong enough that it can be smelled over the spice/cover-up smell), it's very possible that he could be using incense to cover-up the indoor smoking (he wouldn't be the only person in the building that appears to be doing this, however he's the only one currently living here that has had indoor smoking verified in his unit before).  The problem with determining whether what he's using is spice or incense is technically speaking, spice is a form of incense, unfortunately if it's smoked like marijuana, it has the same effect due to the synthetic ingredients (this type of drug requires a different kind of drug test to be detected, it can't be detected through normal drug tests).  The pollution got to the point this morning that I nearly passed out from coughing on it.

UPDATE:  The photo indicates the temp inside my unit at 10:10 AM due to being unable to use central air for heating because of the indoor pollution.
