fair point dave.. but even seeing those things (or ads) the smoker believes they will stop before they 'get to that stage'

Scare tactics only work for some people, smokers have the mentality of well im going to die anyway, you have to change that first before anything else.

true that.
still a little reality can put light into some people.
Petermac is an ace place to start.

Im a non smoker but have tried it once or twice, it never stuck because i physically cant breathe in the smoke without falling onto the ground in a massive coughing fit. Pretty embarrasing really and it makes it tough to get high cos i love weed but hate to smoke... maybe i should learn how to bake instead.
Anyway that book sounds interesting even though i dont smoke, curious as to what it has to say on the matter.

all the cancer ward will do for most smokers is stress them out more and make them feel the need to smoke.
