He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

Until is is possible to match smokers to nonsmokers by genetic traits, it won't be clear whether smoking is protective or a marker of those less susceptible.
I notice that this professor is from Duke University, named after a notorious tobacco marketer. North Carolina has a
concentration of tobacco interests. In the case of this study, one needs to follow the money. I don't think it is
deliberate psychopathy, merely defacto.
BTW, cigarette smoke is a particularly harmful way to deliver nicotine. Smokeless tobacco has 5% of the risk of cigarettes.
Unfortunately, smoke delivers acetylaldehyde. The brain converts this into a substance more addicting than heroin. For
this reason smokeless doesn't adequately substitute for cigarettes for most people.
Those who are primarily addicted to nicotine will be able to use smokeless while others will find it very unsatisfying. This
also explains why Electronic cigarettes don't satisfy many users.
I have noticed that those who oppose tobacco aren't interested in safer tobacco. While it may be wrong to advertise "safe"
tobacco, for those who are interested in public health safer "unsafe" products should be of great interest. This'
is particularly true if it is impossible to reach a zero exposure level
