A quote from the [msnbc.com](http://msnbc.com) article:

Williams, according to his widow, never gave any credence to the surgeon general’s health warnings about smoking cigarettes because tobacco companies insisted they were safe. Only after falling sick did Williams tell his wife: “Those darn cigarette people finally did it. They were lying all the time.”

Shouldn’t common sense play in here. Has smoke and tobacco ever been proven healthy? Hammering my hands until it bleeds is not healthy, but if I do it, I’m not going to sue craftsman for not warning me not to do it. :banghead:
