That could be lethal. And some firefighters in Cali do smoke poison oak. Not intentionally, but some have wound up in the hospital from smoking it.

It causes breathing passages to swell shut.
I know one fire-fighter who's been to the ER 7 times so he could get a shot to help reduce the swelling.
One of the most considerate thing a person can do for fire-fighters, is to clear Poison Oak from the area around their house.
