Brian, Little you know about tobacco. The white men that got into the tobacco business had a problem, in that they could not get the cigarettes to continue burning, unless puffed on constantly, so they began to induce additives to the tobacco to solve that problem, and those additives made the tobacco addictive for those that did not, normally, have addictive personalities. By making the cigarettes to continue to burn without puffing, cigarettes also became a hazard in causing bed, and other furniture, fires when the smoker fell asleep with a lit cigarette. Of course, they were usually drunk, or otherwise impaired, so it could be said that it was their own fault that their asses got singed, or that they were burned to death.
BTW, I smoke nothing anymore. |
