Now, mind...this isn't my theory necessarily, but just recently one of the gubmint agencies published a report that noted (with much consternation, I might add) the nearly perfect correlation between the drop in smoking and the rise in obesity.

Of course...most folks realize and admit that correlation doesn't equal causation--except in the case of smoking....
