Beautiful writing.

Did you know that, for reasons unknown, smoking reduces the risk of developing Parkinson's disease? (Though of course the harms vastly outweigh that benefit.)

Thank you Adam! I didn’t know! (I may still your line for my character…) ;)

Beautifully written as always

I was a very heavy smoker until ten years ago so I see both sides of this. I'm an anxious, addictive person so I was never without a cigarette in my hand! But since I've stopped what my lungs and nostrils had tuned out is so apparent to me! I now completely understand how invasive it is for non smokers.

The stuff about birds is fascinating though saddening
