"Dear Dr. Dempsey,
Read with some interest the article concerning your research into tobacco use and its impact upon users of the product in its many forms. I can speak from first hand experience as I was a smoker for 49 years. For the most part, I smoked unfiltered Camels and on occasion tried a pipe or a cigar. Up until the time I quit, I was in excellent health. Now, I am experiencing some health issues."
