I sure hope you are talking about one of the attic vents and not the
sewer vent, Joe. Sounds like Johnny wants to hook into the sewer vent
pipe stack which will cause all sorts of trouble when he wants to sell
the house. Not to mention that "wonderful" odor he'll be trying to track
down in his bathroom on those occasional days.
My advice Johnny, is don't tap into the sewer vent stack unless you
intend to use it to dump sewage into.

Whaddya mean "occasional"? I suspect it'd be pretty much all stench,
all the time ;-)
