Yup that's it.
"Approximately 5.5 trillion cigarettes are produced globally each year by the tobacco industry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_industry), smoked by over 1.1 billion people, which is more than one-sixth of the world's total population." (Wikipedia, 2008)
So 17% of people smoke hmm?
Smoking Prevalence by Gender
PERCENT SMOKING REGION MEN / WOMEN
Africa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa) 29 / 4
United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) 35 / 22
Eastern Mediterranean (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Sea) 35 / 4
Europe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe) 46 / 26
Southeast Asia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southeast_Asia) 44 / 4
Western Pacific (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean) 60 / 8
(2000, World Health Organization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Health_Organization) estimates)
USA = (35+22)/2 = 28.5% of Americans smoke. I'd figure numbers are comparable in Canada too but that seems like an awful lot of smokers.
Yeah, i wanna see if lighting up is more prevalent in the hemp community:D
This is a private poll too so please be honest:) No one can see your answer.

One and a half myself, perhaps. Sometimes less, many times more. Depends on the drinking and my supply. If supply is low, then I smoke cigs more. Wish I had supply more often, but whichever. Just needs an excuse to get rid of the 'backy'.
pack and 1/2 here and no plans to cut back :p

At the weekend I hardly smoke cigs at all. I don't smoke in front of my kid and try not to be stinking of smoke either, not always possible of course. I chew the gum sometimes.
When I'm working and there's no chance of a spliff I hit the smokes. About a pack a day.
It's a mug's game though, there is nothing at all of benefit in a ciggie. All you get is relief from wanting a smoke.
I'm the only one who never smoked backy
I can almost garuntee that all of us wish we never smoked our first one. ;)

I fluctuate between 1-1.5 packs a day depending on the day. Oddly enough the busier and more stressful the day, the less I smoke. Nice slow day at work with nothing to do and I'll burn through a pack in 10 hours...:o

good call.when chatting to my doc,this was the only thing she could really say was bad about weed.as 99% of us over here smoke cannabis with tobacco she said if ya try weed then ya more likey to start smokin which was a fair comment...but like i told her
its education thats at fault there....take leaf out the yanks book,smoke it neat if smoked....i then went on about vaps and i think she got bored of me by then.

I smoke roughly 2oz/50gms of baccy every 4-5 days. I never smoke more than half a roll up with a long stubb going in the trash.
I've also never smoked indoors. My father did and I hated it, so I never have in 26 years.
You'd be surprised at what the night sky has to offer if you stepped outside to smoke :cool1:

Im paying around 23 bucks a carton for Doral's. Tried rolling my own, but that didnt go over to well with the boss, when he came out back and thought I was tokin a joint :D. Been a while since I'd gotten in trouble for smoking baccy, lol

$9.00 for a bag of midnight special tobacco and $3.00 for the tubes. that gives me a carton of smokes.
tastes just like marlboro to me.
even if i hit the lottery i think i would still roll my own
