Hi DW,

there's an article in the news section that talks about the additional risks of oral cancer that smokeless tobacco can pose.

From the article,
"The American Cancer Society says that smokeless tobacco users are 50 times more at risk for developing various cancers than those who don't use."

You can read the entire article at http://www.oralcancerfoundation.org/news/story.asp?newsId=641. Bottom line, it is very difficult to kick a powerfully addictive drug like nicotine, but, if you can do it, it is well worth the effort.

Good luck with your biopsy results. - Sheldon
