The hell he says! You know what, at this point in my life, I get it. People who don't smoke have been misled, and out of their inherent, possibly instinctive, fear of being stigmatized, ostracized, or misunderstood would rather completely disengage on this issue rather then fully engage the dialogue. They are willfully and alas woefully ignorant, because of their voluntary blinders. They buy into the government assumptions because its safer than taking the risk of sincerely hearing out the current science.
