Ish, Good grief! I am sitting here watching the news out of the SF Bay Area (we get one of the stations here), and what do I hear? San Mateo County (California) will no longer hire smokers as deputy sheriffs or firefighters, the reason being that that heart disease and cancer have long been decreed job-related illnesses for those professions, and San Mateo County thinks it will cut down on disability claims. I don't know what to say, but if I did it would be quite unprintable! - Holly
