A drug that kills thousands every year.

and slept like a baby, lol.

But I'm glad they are finally admitting that cigarettes have ZERO redeeming value to society.

I know, I know, I should have died 45 years ago, the first time I ever inhaled. But somehow I haven't. And now I'm going for a walk. See ya later.

Also, my getting fat or diabetic doesn't affect the weight or sugar levels of those around me.

Polonium-210 is in most every organic matter, unleashed when burned. It cannot penetrate the skin, but once inside the body, it cannot leave either. There was some Nova-like episode on PBS years back that said a person who smokes 1.5 packs of cigs a day, gets the equivalent of 200 chest x-rays per year in radiation.

Also, my father passed away from ling cancer, due to asbestos. Fox Chase Cancer Center doctors told me that hot showers and smoking causes mutations in the lung tissue and to not take long steaming showers or smoke. This does not bring up the COPD issue.

Also, no matter how clean a smoker is... you can always smell one. You can smell their house, and if furniture is in a bedroom of a smoker, you can't even give it away to the Salvation Army. My mom smoked and we tried. Besides, if people stopped smoking, we wouldn't have to walk past that stench in front of most stores and office buildings that linger because the resin is coating the building's walls and floor.

Do we really need to find a way to criticize everything?

Gawd, it gets negative around here sometimes.
