Can you imagine someone from 1970 with a time machine reading this article?

They would wonder just what the hell happened here.

I was 11 in 1970. There are many here older than I.

I am wondering just what the hell happened here, that's for damn sure. No time machine necessary.

Actually, 1970 is the precise year the law was passed banning cigarette advertising from TV and Radio. There were at least a few people then who said exactly what the hell was going to happen here.

They were soundly ridiculed.
