2000-10-06 ok you know how sometimes you'll be eating something, and it'll get caught in your throat and you start choking and coughing, because it's going down the wrong pipe or whatever. what happens to that stuff. like do I have a bunch of cookies and crackers and whatever else collecting at the bottom of my lungs? because if food goes down there, i don't think your lungs have the same kind of digestive things as your stomach does, so what happens to all that stuff. is that bad. is there a surgery to have it removed. should i not be worried.
