Is anyone planning to go to the Mayo Clinic's Spit Tobacco Summit in October?

Your topic certainly caught my eye - I was envisioning some kind of distance and/or accuracy, spitting contest;-) All kidding aside, I am glad that they are addressing this deadly habit. I personally can't understand why any tobacco products are still legal or that the tobacco companies hide behind the grandfather thing, or that the FDA is so toothless that they can't declare it a "drug delivery system" and regulate it. Or that the blackmarket that will created by assessing a tax of 13 cents/cigarette will fund terrorists. Or that in Europe and foreign countries people smoke like chimneys.
