Rationale Holy Smoke!! No Smoke Without Fire What is more dangerous 'fire' or 'smoke'? Do smokers die early, is there any truth in this? If the average life expectancy is 70 and you die at 69 and were a smoker then the year you missed is attributed to smoking but never mind the pollution, bad food habits, diseases, illness or genetics or any other million every day things that could have made you live one year "less". However, if you live one year "more", that extra year is never attributed to…

blame others for the bad reputation that hangs over the tobacco industry and it 's products. By completely avoiding the conflict at hand, the article is left looking more like a finger pointing blame than an actual defense against a ban on cigarettes.

So why is there so much regulation on something that is not against the law? It is normal for people…
For the genre revision I decided to make my MWA2 into a brochure. The reason I chose to remake the MWA2 is because it was clear to me that there are a lot of individuals who did not know that using an electronic cigarette and liquid nicotine can be poisonous. I saw this on the faces of my peers when I gave my presentation. Most of them looked intrigued because they had no clue it was possible to be poisoned through these devices.
