Hundreds of thousands of Americans will die from preventable cancer and heart disease in coming years because states are short-changing proven anti-smoking programs, health experts say.

Someone please tell me which those are. Non smokers get lung cancer, throat cancer, emphasyma, and heart disease. Why? Not smoking didn't prevent them from getting it. Were they cheated? If non smokers get thse things how then can we KNOW that tobacco causes them?

Because the "experts" say so. Seems quitting doesn't save you from lung cancer if you have the tendency toward it. At least that is what they are saying in conversations surrounding Peter Jennings death. He smoked period no matter how long ago. Furthermore, had he not all those evil smokers exposed him to secondhand smoke. The experts are bent on tobacco being the cause of death period. Wonder if no one smoked if we would live forever and free of cancer?
