Sounds like an interesting game you've got going with your crystal ball. Him with his crystal ball and you pulling crap out of your wonder bra. Youse guys are a barrel of laughs. |

So, you do believe that lawsuits (if any are allowed) should be known in advance. Interesting. Read up on fantasy and get back to me. |

Any 12 year old with half a brain knows the use of tobacco is harmful to your health. |

How many suits have there been since the settlement? What difference does that make? Tell me about how many lawsuits are known about in advance. I notice you keep avoiding telling me. I suppose you consider 12 year olds cognizant of the dangers of cigar smoke also. Typical "libertarian" nonsense. 12 year olds are prohibited by law from smoking. As I said, the tobacco companies don't seem to care. Also, does this mean you believe in certain gov't intrusion? I'm shocked! |

He has to in order to stay opposed to you. |

He has to in order to stay opposed to you. It is not necessary Plume will always disagree with anything I say. That is why it is fun playing with her. I can usually get her arguing with herself before it is over. And, I usually get you to make up some false equivalent to justify and untenable position... Example: Me: The stars are far away. You: So is my cigar. |

My cigar LaPlume? Is that what you call it. You should take it out of tour nightstand and play with it. You talked about people going into places where they serve peanuts as an example of companies stopping service of them, as though that never happens. I pointed you to a specific example. Now, you're claiming there isn't a law about it. So? There could be a lawsuit about it, might have already been one. Feel free to do the research, since you're so dedicated. I think I'll feel good about no-smoking bans. Which one of you birds made the above comment? I want you to know that I am strictly opposed to bans on no-smoking. |
