Where there's smoke...

If you're still smoking, you should be interested in an extensive survey conducted over the last fify years that shows smoking knocks 10 years off your life. You're twice as likely to die before you get to 70 if you smoke, probably through cancer, heart disease or a stroke. If you've seen these diseases and you're still convinced you can handle them, ask yourself whether you can handle coming round after diagnosis and telling your family how ill you are. If you're still in any doubt, this is an example of what they'll take out of you.
