I smoked 3 packs a day for 25 years, until about 8 years ago. I just got fed up with hacking in the morning and making sure that I had enough smokes to last whatever. A pack would last the drive from Rt. 117 down I-495 to N. Truro. I had to make sure that I had enough. The day came that I realized the tobacco companies were an international drug cartel and the US Government was a full partner, what with the tax income and subsidies. The tobacco companies added chemicals to increase the addictivity of their produce, making sure that their "customers" were loyal for their shortened lives. They were willing to kill me for my pocket change! I also got tired of the can I or can't I smoke here BS. I fired their butts ! Having said all this, I don't understand defending your future murderer.
