norma, I hope less than a pack means this is an improvement.

Why are cigarettes so expensive? In Ohio the tax on cigarettes is really high.

A good friend of mine smokes. When I'm in her van she is courteous and opens the window a little to let the smoke out. I would never think of hurting or insulting her by asking her not to smoke. I value her company and it isn't going to kill me for the 20 minutes or so that I'm in her van. I don't lecture her either about smoking. I figure if she wants to quit she will.
