"Tobacco use is the nation's number one cause of preventable death, killing more than 400,000 people and costing $96 billion in health care bills each year"

That 4000,000 number hasn't changed in 20 years yet less number of people are smoking now than ever before.

So which is right ? ( p.s. 70,000 smokers a year 85 and over are included in that 4000,000 number that die prematurely)

Hahaha! Sounds about right for today's "science". Here's another one, I'll bet:

Doctor: "Did your great-grandfather smoke?"

Grieving man: "I recall he said he tried it once when he was a boy."

Doctor: "Okay, we'll put it down as another smoking-related death."
