    Thanks @jillar. Informative and sad. Not something to look forward to is it? Watching someone slowly die from it is the worst.

     
    I assume if someone is on the QuitTrain checking it out or as a seated passenger it’s too late to say ‘never start smoking.’ But I can say ‘Stop, stop smoking now!’
