Don't breathe. :-)
This sort of thing makes me wish digital whiteboards were a) more
prevalent, b) inexpensive and c) portable enough that you could carry
it with you and set it up anywhere.
I've not had respiratory problems, but those durn little flakes are
*everywhere* When I moved the whiteboard in my office from one wall
to another there was a distinct halo of dark particles surrounding the
area where the whiteboard used to be that was not apparent until
moving the whiteboard.
