if 300,000 per year die from smoking, that accounts for 1 in 5 deaths overall. quite a high percentage, considering not all of the 5 smoke. "In addition to cigarette smoking as a cause of cancer in smokers, environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) (also called involuntary or passive smoking) is now recognized as a significant cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers (National Research Council, 1986; DHS, 1987; EPA, 1993)" from http://rex.nci.nih.gov/NCI_Pub_Interface/raterisk/risks67.html That statistic is even more troubling. Smokers kill a large number of people who don't even smoke. ...and as far as injecting heroin and contracting HIV, it's just stupidity. clean needles are cheap and legal in most places. getting HIV from injecting is really not different from getting it through unprotected sex, in fact its quite obvious even to moron addicts, that the risk is higher.

actually theres about 180

See, you CDMA/TDMA people have phones that are so ancient they're not even powerful enough to cause brain damage like my $300 GSM phone

Drinking 3 glasses of alcohol per day will reduce the risk of alzheimers and dementia by 50%... and no, drinking more does not increase the benefits.

Well, it takes reading the FAQ and "How to avoid the incurring the wrath of Fafalone" All potential moderators are sure expected to at least have read the sites FAQ, since it specifically addresses becoming a moderator The site is growing, so in a few years there time there will indeed be a need for more moderation... but we've got it under control for now.

lets blame the poll changing on blike, things are usually his fault

Given the complexity of the universe and trying to mathematically describe it, the simplest view of the universe held by the majority of people is not even close to correct. The standard view of the universe isn't close to correct either, but alot closer than the simplest possible view.
