I get so sick of these reports.
Just think how intelligent the scientists that grew up in the early part of this century would have been had their parents and everyone around just not smoked. Or the scientists and engineers that have been keeping the world running from my generation (baby boomers).
The young people of today have no clue as to just how smoky the old world was. You could barely breath in bars, restaurants, on commuter trains and in homes where mothers and fathers smoked without restraint because no one had told them to be restrained or go outside and smoke.
