I found your message whilst looking for a smoker's site.
I am 75 years old, and started smoking at the age of 14. I smoke 2 packs a day.
I can say the exact words that you said, and I have given up trying to calculate how much has been collected, all over the world, through heavy taxes on tobacco, by all governments.
Today, in Brazil, every pack has on the back an anti-tobacco message. "The Health Ministry adverts you: Smoking causas bad breath, loss of teeth and mouth cancer." is on the pack I am using right now. (01-Sept-02 12:00 GMT).
Everyone seems to defend the rights of the non-smokers. I'm looking for some one to help defend my rights as a smoker.
