Note: The blogger received the following WITTY comment from Great Sifu Dr J B Lim on the subject of “One Mosquito Coil Equals 100 Cigarettes” as reported in the Times of India as reproduced below:
"Nowadays a lot of people are using the high frequency mosquito repellant device but again in future there will be some more bright people who might say that these devices will cause some other illnesses or ear problems!!"

My Dear Doctor,
I appreciate your thousands of e-mails to me about health.
Look, we all MUST die one day, sooner or later – either from any of the lung diseases - Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), malignant tumors, from small cell lung cancer, adenocarcinoma, carcinoid, Kaposi’s
Alternatively, we suffer from acoustic neuroma, and sensorineural hearing loss from the use of ultrasonic mosquito repellent.
If you then chose not to use neither mosquito coils nor ultrasonic mosquito repellants, then suffer sleepless nights, weal, irritation, urticaria, acute myocardial infraction and sleep deprivation from mosquito bites.
If we still do not want these either, then suffer death from malaria, dengue fever, filariasis and elephantiasis, viral encephalitis, chikungunya, and other mosquito-borne diseases.
You choose your own sufferings and mode of death if you don’t want to live with Mother Nature and her mosquitoes around.
But if you still think you do not want any of the above either, but choose to sleep in an air-conditioned room, then you are back to square one once again on lung disease by suffering from Legionnaire's disease.
You choose either this Legionella bacteria from your air-con, or the Plasmodium parasite and other viruses carried by the mosquitoes.
.
But if you are still undecided after what I tell you here which way you want to suffer death, then I suggest you go to the Moon and stay there permanently. There you will find neither mosquito, water, food, air, noise, companion, nor e-mail messages to permanently trouble you any further.
It’s up to you.

A follow-up email on the same subject from Dr Lim is reproduced below. A good question worth pondering is: Shall we go to the Moon and live there so as to run away from the mosquitoes? Hahaha…….

I re-echo what I earlier said. The Moon is the best place for these people who do not like mosquitoes around. There on the Moon, they will find a vacuum, no mosquitoes around, no anti-mosquitoes ultra-sonic sound (devices) needed, not even ordinary sound they could hear with no air to transmit it.
They will also not be able to burn anything including mosquito coils, no air or insecticide pollution, no food, no water, no bacteria … nothing, just moon rocks and moon dusts and them alone.
There, they will live forever, and ever in absolute harmony with Moon Nature, because these doctors, scientists, environmentalists, and health fanatics do not like Mother Nature on Earth, or want any disease-carrying mosquitoes around to live in peace and in harmony with them.
These creatures inherited Earth a 100 million years ago, long even before the dinosaurs, let alone human being.
