You are certainly welcome. I am gratified to find there is someone
out there this early in the morning!
Smoking and, in some cultures, taking natural hallucinogens, is
practised by adults and occassionally the kids get in on it. In these
so-called primitive cultures, neither habit carries a stigma and
neither is addictive. Technologically-based cultures, where
individuals become more or less anonymous and alienated, seem to have
the greatest problem with an addiction to smoking and drugs. Just a
thought.
All my best.
