I'm surprised a shill hasn't come out and criticised you for not supporting a legal product...the quicker those bastards at the tobacco companies go under the better....they now concentrate on emerging third world countries to spread their murderous product...they are truly disgusting human beings with no morals for peddling a product that can wreck so many lives outside of the actual smokers....I think of all the families that have been had to go through losing members and the misery attached.....again congrats to you for quitting and good luck in the future..enjoy
