Oh, and I'd like to mention that, in my opinion, the 'scientific evidence' about smoking presented by BOTH the anti-smoking lobby AND the tobacco industry are questionable. Both sides have a huge vested (economic) interest in the matter, making it most likely that the studies either pro or against are biased and incomplete.

So I prefer to make decisions based on the facts of my own life experiences, knowing that these facts are NOT applicable to everyone else. We are all different. And if that makes me appear 'neurotic' or 'self-delusional' then so be it.
