FWD: RE: [PATEDNET] Fwd: FWD: HPiC Website News - Issue 30 (fwd)

Joan and Friends:

I may be wrong, but aren't the tobacco companies supposed to create
content on their Websites that discusses the health problems of smoking? I
thought I read that this was part of the tobacco settlement. If this is
true, than why wouldn't the information be considered health promotional
in nature even it it came from a tobacco company? In any case, I would
expect that being professionals you would want to check out the materials
on the site and see if 

Keep in mind that the producers of the newsletter are also from England??
and may have differing viewpoints than we do on the cigarette companies. 

Does anyone else have an opinion?
