Point to Ponder
Cigarettes are not magical and cannot do all the wonderful things that advertisers would
have us believe they can do.
In applying the myth and reality test one thing is clear: there are many good reasons
for not smoking and no good reason for smoking.

The survival rate of these diseases are generally poor.
Together these three cause up to 58% of the total deaths in the United States each year.

Point to Ponder
Nonsmokers are becoming more assertive and vocal in their objections to smoking.
Sidestream Smoke (i.e. smoke from a lighted cigarette between puffs) has a high concentration of some of the same irritating
and hazardous substances than does mainstream smoke (i.e smoke inhaled by
the smoker).
