Kevin Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I think this recent report was supposed to be the coup de grace for smokers everywhere . Not content with deeming them suicidal parriahs , they can now be accused of killing others as well . It will be held up to ban smoking nearly everywhere , and can even get into their homes now and be used by spouses/ family members etc. to rail against it . Anyway , I gonna pack it in , I guess , as I couldn't handle the guilt nor shame were my wife or anyone else I know to feel that exposure to my smoking gave them lung cancer or other problems ( eventhough it can form without exposure to cigarette smoke ) .
