dustbury.com: Ghouls gone wild Apparently mentioning why a person died prematurely is in poor taste. Peter Jennings died of lung cancer... why? (shrugs) I give people of a certain generation a pass. At one time it was a matter of debate whether smoking caused people to die of lung cancer. That time is long past. People who start smoking now can't claim any ignorance. I think many younger people who smoke do so with the intention of quitting after a few years. I'm used to the boneheaded defensiveness of smokers. I'm not about to try to talk people out of smoking, but I can understand why people become militant about making sure that people know the dangers of lighting up. After all, watching a person (or two, or three) die prematurely due to smoking-related cancer has a weird effect on people. |
