>>As for the rest, shirley you know propaganda when you see it.<<

Holly -

Sorry to butt in, but "shirley" you're not saying that all the anti-smoking data is propganda?

One of the main features of propaganda is that it is generally not supported by empirical research. if you want to see good examples of propaganda, look at what all the tobacco companies used to say in the sixties and seventies about the health risks of smoking, before they were forced to fess up in court and admit they knew about the risks all along.
