Re the EPA report: Federal courts are not medically knowledgable to make such decisions and despite the gracious nodding from the smoking community, the court justices often render "quack" rulings. (Ex. 9th Circuit - Pledge of Allegiance)

It didn't take a rocket scientist, nor someone "medically knowledgable," to see how the EPA lied, cheated and committed fraud. You're absolutely right, justices DO often render "quack" rulings, but in this case several EPA scientists resigned because of this travesty of a report. EPA appealed but the appeal hasn't been heard.

Your absolutely right, Max. And I told him several posts earlier that it took "5" years of study for the Federal Court to make their ruling. It just wasn't an overnight pencil whipping!
