Tobacco strikes again!!

Mesothelioma is a kind of cancer that is virtually always connected to exposure to asbestos, a very effective heat and flame retardant. mesothelioma lawyers, I would assume, will evenutually have to find new work, since asbestos isn't very proliferative today, at least compared to 4 or 5 decades ago.  Tobacco lawyers, however, may have plenty of time left in the arena.  Here are some apparently tasty candies designed to deliver a quick nico-fix to smokers who can't smoke; ostensibly at work, or maybe in a hospital or something, but almost certainly those guys with throat cancer whose necks might rot through if they take one more puff.

On the face, I'd say "Great, now smokers don't have to get those dirty looks when they come back in from a smoke break smelling like dirty ashtrays.  But a little deeper, and, well, I can see kids passing them around for the nicotine buzz that gets people hooked on cigarettes in the first place.  Sure, it's not as harsh as the smoke that wrecks teeth, gums, throats, lungs, fingers, etc, and hell, maybe they are perfectly medically safe.  But I don't want to see my kids, or your kids, hooked on anything.  I think that somebody is going to figure out that a nic-andy addiction is going to cause them some kind of loss of quality in their life and sue the manufacturers over it.  After all, it's America.
