Derek, a study released the other day says kids are starting up smoking more now than in the past 10 years. Not bad considering governments tell us the ban on advertising works etc.
I don't doubt what you say - there are all sorts of conflicting reports out there these days. However just from simple observation when I go out to pubs (where you can smoke outdoors) / parties etc there are a hell of lot less smokers these days compared to when I first started going out drinking (that was a long time ago but we won't go into that!). I have noticed that particulary the younger generation, say gen Y's, it seems that very few of this generation smoke. I work in an office in the city and out of about 100 workers, only about 10 (max) are smokers.
For the record I am only what you would call a part time smoker, only when I drink - so I don't really give a rats either way.
