I believe to remember I glanced over some of the articles mentioned and I seem to recall they were about poorly ventilated situations without proper hoods.

That doesn't say much about air quality WITH hoods in general, let alone my situation in particular. Incidentally I was already planning to build a little sensor array, specifically for the kitchen, that would would measure some of the nasty stuff.

But even if I would measure that stove is slowly killing me, I wont give it up. Just like I won't give up my coal fired barbecue.

Some pleasures are certainly worth the risk!
