It Was 20 Years Ago Today

The US Government took several actions twenty years ago today pertaining to regulating tobacco and researching how best to educate young people about the dangers of smoking.  I take a look at these, the 19th Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health, and my own experiences with smokers among my friends and family.I also wanted to share a good web page of tips on how to quit, from MSNBC news anchor Keith Olbermann and his viewers.  The Tobacco Timeline by Gene Borio was very useful to me as I prepared this podcast.  The music for this episode is "Allmost There," by Father Rock.  Theme music was composed and performed by Marc Rose.
