I agree with others who have commented regarding the silliness of those trying to erase smoking from history. My avatar here is one that I've used on another forum, and I once got a comment, in a completely unrelated discussion, about my avatar. Something about using morbid tasteless art glorifying a slow senseless death to the detriment of future generations. My response was, "I'm sure van Gogh would be amused by your interpretation of his work." Guess it's a good thing it's not been in a US exhibition in over a decade - I'm not sure it's safe here, as much as I would love to see it in person. Most people now know that smoking is bad - no need to villify it to the point of rewriting history.
