FACT smoking leads directly decreased lung capacity; almost all smoker either have or WILL develop emphysema. Damaged lungs mean it's harder to fight minor respiratory infections.

Thankyou pad ..I will pass on these FACTS to my friends children who have emphysema, Lung cancer and are unable to travel 1km without Bronchiodialators

And are only against smoking ..have you looked up the 'healthy' ones?? The sports injuries, bicycle riding, Mountain biking, Bushwalking injuries and deaths??

Yeah I've read all that and it is still inacurate.

The point I am trying to insert here is the EMOTIONALISM attached the the 'Anti Smoking programe' and it's incongruity with real life.

I dare say you will die of lung cancer long before I will pad. If you aren't on the road there already.
