How about a cure for COPD? It's not just smokers who get COPD, only 20% of smokers get COPD….smoking doesn't help it…but would not every smoker have it?? I don't smoke…I just think this is a centuries old disease that has a cure, that is being kept from people….it's a big money maker for pharmaceutical companies and hospitals…..BIG MONEY…shame on them….They'll get their karma…it always comes around….

"A Tip From A Former Smoker" is now a registered trademark now? Really CDC?
Now that I am thirty I guess I should pick up smoking since I don't want to be alive at 70.
