If I'm not mistaken, we've pretty much had all of our provinces here in Canada switch to the fir-safe smokes. I'm a smoker, and they are a slight inconvience (taking 2 sec. to relight) maybe once a month when you happen to have it go out on you, but the average smoker smokes quick enough. I've never understood why people complain about them.
And for the record Americans have no right to bitch about the price of smokes down there. What are they? $30 a carton I think the last time I was down there (Dec 06). Up here you're looking at $10-$12 a pack, $75 a carton. Just had to toss my 2 cents in

Know whats real funny? I remember when I was little I always tried to light leaves on fire and stuff like that. I remember one time I put some gasoline on a pile and it only burned for like 5 seconds and went out. But apparently all these fires start when someone flicks out a barely lit cigarette on a field or whatever...

But apparently all these fires start when someone flicks out a barely lit cigarette on a field or whatever... thats because gasoline burns out quickly, if its not got a significant fuel to last after the petrol is gone, its gonna go out. Whereas a butt will last longer before extinguishing itself it has more chance of causing combustion

The idea of outlawing everything that's harmful in the world is downright preposterous, and I think The Diamond got his point across. Also, I love that the banner ad I got in a thread about ridiculous whining was an ad for Ann Coulter.

youve got me wrong, i agree with the point about how attempting to ban something so big is ridiculous, just not the way its put across.
As i say, im a smoker myself
and im gonna end it there before i get to political, just wanted to clarify my post

You mean cigarettes are bad for me? And it's the easiest thing in the world for anyone to just quit? Only weak losers don't quit? Damn, I wasn't aware of any of that stuff! Why didn't anyone inform me before?
I've been enlightened!! It's SO easy!!!!!
