I don't understand why ANYONE under the age of 50 takes up smoking these days.

Go around and ask every smoker you know when they started smoking. I'd guess that at least 80% of them started when they were teenagers. Its not like there are a bunch of adults who just wake up one day and decide to start smoking.

Well yeah. I certainly wasn't implying otherwise. I was referring to the people in the last 30-35 years who went through their teenage years after the harmful effects of smoking were discovered.

I'm ambivalent about social smokers (i.e. smoke when drinking). It's still stupid but if they're doing it 1-2/week and maybe to the tune of a pack total and in a publicly social setting, it's obviously not as devastating, nor as annoying to others around them.
