 Replace cigarettes with pictures of diseased lungs.

Well, why not?  Abortion protestors
send trucks around with huge pictures
of  'results' on them.

How about, instead of the constant
horrorizing of society, we just do
this? Every pack/carton of tobacco
sold would require a signature
affirming that the purchaser realizes
the health risk of the product, and
gives up any future claim against
the assets of the manufacturer,
the retailer, or anyone else
providing them with the product.

I had a similar idea years ago. Post a picture of a skull and crossbones on each pack with a message - "Warning - these things will cause all kinds of deadly diseases." Then list the most common. And then, as you suggest, in order to smoke you must sign a waiver stating that you know the danger of somking and give up your right to sue the manufacturers. Then - SMOKE 'em if you got 'em.
