Lost1,

I had not thought about it in that regard. I do realize the impact that throat/oral cavity cancer plays in deterring people from smoking, or influencing them to quit. I personally am a prime example. I have never started smoking for one reason and one reason alone. Both of my parents were smokers. My dad died of cancer. He never quit smoking. I made a personal resolve as a teenager, if he would not quit, I would never start. He was my role model for resisting the peer pressure to light up a cigarette and take that first puff. I know that years of cigarettes and beer drinking is what took my dad from us, just before his 60th birthday.

Hey Kirk, lots of us here celebrated our 40th's this year. Let's all try to be around to really celebrate when we hit our 60th birthdays!!!
