So nice to see so many of the sheeple following the masters dictates. Your masters said smoking is so terrible, so you must believe it. Never question it, just believe. Never look at any real studies on it, never look into how their studies are done. Just believe. Your masters are so proud of you all.
Oh, by the way, you all are a bunch of hypocrites too. You cry and whine about the smell and dangers of smoke, yet have zero problems driving cars to get where you want to go that pollute the air everyone has to breathe. But, let's not go there, because that is something you like to do and want to do.
Point well taken Neil..Non-smokers appear oblivious to another proven fact!..If you walk to lunch, in any big city, you are ingesting more harmful carcoginans into your lungs, (in just a few minutes)..than smoking several packs of cigarettes!..Thats because non-smokers pollute with their cars, trucks and buses, worse than smokers do, with their "inconsiderate habit"!...Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
Sorry Watchez, can't buy it!..In the 30's, long before all the 'scare tactics', my mother owned a bar..She drank and smoked heavily, during her all of her pregnancies!..All 5 of my older siblings (but one) lived normal healthy lives, well into their 80's..The one who didn't make it, passed at age 60..Oddly enough, she was also the only non-smoker, out of all of us!..Go figure!
PS..I believe that should show, that ones inherent genes, are the major factor in determining health
and longevity!

Sorry..What else can one use to make his point in a debate, but life experiences?..We can't all have access to 'proven, verifiable scientific facts', (like Watchez
There are always going to be exclusions. I do believe in genes. I have friends that eat fast food every day and seem to be ok. Never even come close to eating a vegetable. Other people wouldn't last a year doing it.
Just like if I drive my car 100 mph every day, I might live. But there is a higher likelihood that eventually it will kill me. So I keep it under 80 mph.
My dad smoked 3 packs of cigarettes a day and had his first heart attack at 45. Dead at 53. His sister who never smoked lived to 78. (see how this works).
Again - if smoking is ok, not only have your female loved ones smoke when they are pregnant but bring their newborns into bars and pool rooms with smoking, let em breath it all in to those new lungs of theirs. When you don't have time to go to the pool room, just light up a cigarette and blow the smoke in their face. Ain't gonna hurt them - so says Dick and Neil.
p.s. I'm here now and working in Phoenix for over the next month. I'll take a ball from the HOF San Jose Dick.

I smoked a pack and a half a day for many years. Finally quit in February on an ecig. Worked like a charm. Definitely not harmless but will ease the transition.
