my kids tried it once
and said it didnt do anything

[because my smoking it
had allready passivly given their thc recepers
all max dosage possable..the thc had no vacant recepters..
to attach with..thus either got excreeted or stored in the fat cells..lol]

no overdose is EVER possable
no deaths EVER..

its fat soluable..
thus gradually disipitates ..over a few weeks..
so no withdrawel...either..being stoned is all in the mind..!

heck tobacco smokers ..used to use it
to get over nicoteen addiction..

i didnt know even that my kids tried it
they only told me a few years ago...
[thats when i figured it all out]

and the fat solubility
ensures its able to be detected for weeks after..even if only inhaled passivly..even worse there are 5 vegetables that have thc [so just eating a mixed salid means you got thc..

the whole thing would be a joke
if it wernt for all the lies

lies they now used with tobacco
because lies makes fear
fear campains work

big pharma is tied all over this
to make it worse they even patented thc now
its called marinol...[only on subsised perscription]

AFTER SAYING FOR YEARS
dope has no medical bennifits

[just as nicoten has no bennifit]
or caffeen..etc..at least
not till big pharma gets a govt subsidy

but why bother
if you swallow the spin
your part of the problem...how hard is it to do research

its the same thing re evolution
there are no gap species..but the spin [liers say there is..and people who dont get science..swallow the lies]

ditto they [media] talk of species..
but evolution [science] says genus

but ignorants
dont know the difference

read dumbing down education
its deliberate policy..

to build the perfect soviat worker
smart enough to work hard..and die young..
but not too smart..a follower..not a thinker..ie a sheeple..[wage slave]

OUG,

You go right ahead and smoke all you want.

I recommend you smoke home-grown, pesticide free rollies with filters.

Good luck.

Rusty

OUG <"ie ONLY ONE IN THREE..can even get cancer
ie two in three CAN*not..!..get cancer"

That observation may well be true OUG, however, the other 2 out of 3 smokers probably die from heart disease, emphysema, stroke, DVT, COAD,
... the list just goes on. I have seen it all.

I agree with Rusty though, you just keep on smoking, and pray that your mistaken beliefs turn to reality.

One thing you need to know though. Diseases caused from smoking do not always cause a premature death or a quick death. Many elderly smokers live for years sucking on a home oxygen tube...

Tobacco kills it does most know it, few deny it.
The money spent on defending it by multi national tobacco firms clouds the waters but it kills.
Some, claiming knowledge and understanding we do not have should understand,they just could be wrong, totally.
So tax or laws? tax it out of existance my answer.

I didn't say it was easy, Yabby.

>>If quitting smoking was as easy as you claim, the average smoker would not need 13 attempts to do so.<<

I said it was simple.

"It is as simple as... not smoking that next cigarette."

The point about giving up being "simple" was precisely that. No monitoring fat content, no counting calories or carbs. Just a straightforward rejection of the next cigarette.

Of course it isn't "easy". Nicotine is after all highly addictive, and withdrawal symptoms can be significant.

But in the end, it is very simple.

Binary.

Yes or no.

Just ask any ex-smoker.

you must remember that some will profess anything for money

its likely these things go out to tender
ask why the danes got the tender...this time

more deciet
[from the festering link]

quote''We included a broader set
of smoking-related* diseases..[lol]
than previous studies....''

in other words..included EVEN more diseases
that can be ATTRIBUTABLE*..to smoking..[see next quote]

so including say diabetus..
[or item 4 ALL DISEASES}..

[see next quote]
scews their numbers..

[also noted ..*"never smoked"..
not in study..[see later notes]

aINT THEY SOO CLEVER..?

hey fester...!
if this links spin ..was valid
WHY DIDNT THEY APPEAL?

or submit it..
where it matterd..ie AT THE COURT hearing..!

but a judge would see through the spin

HEY..*they still lost
the facts of the court case...stay unchanged..!

you cant change the diseaes ATTRIBUTABLE*
without fully explaining WHY ..or how come ..*they are..[now]..[attributable*]

most judges say 50 percent attributable
or 5 percent etc..or 100 percent or NONE...!

then this selector mechanism

""Extensive sensitivity analyses were performed
to ensure*.. that results were robust ..to the ..*assumptions*.. made.""

LOL

assume all you like
assumption...is not science...!

please note the 'impact factor'
is 2...[out of ten]

to wit thats just above out and out/lie..[0]

then this great one..lol

QUOTE>>
""..comparing the health costs ..of continuing* smokers ..and ex*-smokers""

..NO NON SMOKERS...!
get it?

how valid is it
if it dont compare SMOKERS..to NON SMOKERS..?

think why
*you chose to be ..so blind

you lack critical thinking ability..?
you need to believe the spin?
