Gordon,

You are not kidding about the fate of tobacco money.

Here in Santa Barbara the fight is on with what to do
with the millions. The Repubs want to invest it and
make money, the Demos want to blow it all kinds of pet
projects.

I am actually going to vote "yes" on a proposition
that would repeal a 50 cent tax on cigs just because
the money is not being used for children's programs
like it was supposed to, but is being used for all
kinds of other political uses.
