"74 years of age, while those who have none of these risk factors can expect to live until 83." That's 9 years not 10 to 15! Besides there research is crude and self-fulfilling ... fucking antismoking nazis ... let people smoke if they want ... whay are thay taking all our freedoms away???--65.51.209.126 (talk) 19:23, 18 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'll believe the study (most likely differ person to person) but let people do what they want with their bodies.--75.74.61.245 (talk) 10:44, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
I can't see anybody's taking rights away here. It's research showing that smokers' lifespan is reduced. I'll take the extra years and the health, you'll take the cigs and the consequences. Please feel welcome to light up. -Laolaolao (talk) 12:11, 20 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

This isn't just about smoking, Wikipedia... edit

This article names only smoking in the title... but then talks about how the study was about smoking AND high cholesterol AND being overweight. 72.23.224.5 (talk) 01:19, 20 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
