Very Interesting. Here is some more interesting information from the Philip Morris Company's website:

Secondhand Smoke

From their website:

Public health officials have concluded that secondhand smoke from cigarettes causes disease, including lung cancer and heart disease, in non-smoking adults, as well as causes conditions in children such as asthma, respiratory infections, cough, wheeze, otitis media (middle ear infection) and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. In addition, public health officials have concluded that secondhand smoke can exacerbate adult asthma and cause eye, throat and nasal irritation.
...
Philip Morris U.S.A. believes that the conclusions of public health officials concerning environmental tobacco smoke are sufficient to warrant measures that regulate smoking in public places. We also believe that where smoking is permitted, the government should require the posting of warning notices that communicate public health officials' conclusions that secondhand smoke causes disease in non-smokers.

I find it so interesting that the anti-smokers have been screaming for years about how the tobacco industry, PM in particular, are liars, can't be believed etc., until they say something the anti-smokers agree with.

They are either liars, or they are not - which is it??????

(Are you related by VRWC_minnie, by chance?) PM is the typical corporation, groveling and sniveling and begging the government not to put them out of business. They believe appeasement will protect them, but we know it will only hasten the end. We long ago lost all respect for Big Tobacco when they threw their customers to the wolves.
