JOH,
Right on. With all the evidence on tobacco why weren't the tobacco
companies treated the same way. They are allowed to pay damages and raise
their prices to get it back. Knowing that their addict customers will still
be there. I'm not an advocate of Seasilver. I just believe in equal
treatment.
