Documented fact: Not everyone who smokes gets cancer. Some people who never smoked do get cancer. Face it, it's a crapshoot just like everything else in life. My Grandfather smoked all his life and died of pneumonia at the age of 97. No cancer of any sort. On the other hand, my father-in-law, who never smoked a day in his life, died of brain cancer back in '94. Go figure, huh? Kate
