[QUOTE="radio807, post: 345719, member: 2230"] If you were to withhold the name of the author and rewrite this in today's style you'd think it was written yesterday. Like so many things that we wind ourselves up over, it's a replay of the same tune that's been playing since forever. Of course it's not limited to tobacco, it applies to all things subjective. Pick any subject (food, wines, motorcycles, cars, radios, etc. etc.) and you'll see the same script played out, only with a different backdrop. Just like "reality" shows :). I really enjoy hearing from those who traveled the journey before us. Thanx for posting that. BTW, Twain is one of my favorite writers and is actually the only one that can actually make me laugh out loud. I hadn't seen that essay of his before. [/QUOTE]
