Good Morning, EX Community! Well, today there's no snow in the forcast - but there's plenty of rain so no sunshine for this sun loving graveyarder! 😕 Today's articles are far reaching and interesting. I don't agree with all of them but they do spark debate! For example,Will tobacco farmers start working for Pepsi? Will alfalfa become the newest NRT? Will Cuba block Australian Laws? ...Lots to think about! Most important - the true cost of smoking! A 20 year old grieves the loss of his entire family due to smoking, Pregnant Mothers endanger their babies' lives, 30% of Emphysema patients continue to smoke, ALL women suffer more from smoking than men, young smokers risk hearing loss, and tragically, much, much more! So fortify your Quit with KNOWLEDGE! There's plenty here today!
