The legionnaire's link made me laugh so loud I spilled my coffee.

It NEVER ends,the constant search to link all deaths and diseases to smoking.

If they had stopped in the beginning with lung and heart disease they may have made a case,but now smoking is blamed for everything.

I'm sure if we wait long enough there will be a smoking/Al Qaeda link.It's only a matter of time.

There's some truth to that. When I worked out doors, I worked with a man who smoked one cigarette after another. He'd throw one down, rub it out with his heel and then light another one.

He got cancer of the shoe and died.

Lung Cancer is serious illness and so is TB and cigarettes contribute or cause to both. This is not to tax on cigarettes to finance some program, like US sinning taxes, this is to cause flat out drop in smoking.
