  When you can see smoke, there's a lot of it, you'll be suprised as to how 
much dust there needs to be in the air before you can see that.  (unless you've 
got directly sunlight coming in through the window, and you're sitting at the 
right angle, and you can see particles).

  Still like to try it. I'll ask where our dust monitor is....
