Hi anon (Steve),
I don't know about you, but I personally don't take to the advertising type glamor or wholesome pictures to try and convince people of a product. I prefer simply reading the evidence. But hey, that's the reality and necessity of advertising I guess.

But I do take onboard some of the points made on either side and what suits one person is not necessarily going to suit another. it's very much down to each individual and their own response. If your body rebels, you listen to that, not someone attempting to brain wash you into doing it regardless of how you feel. If you respond well? That's ok too. I may try the roll your own smokes oneday, and if/when I do, I'll be sure to post the response.

PS. Even in dentistry, they'd have some attractive young person on the front grinning. Or the best one to use is a wholesome family grinning and looking surpremely healthy and happy.... Old tactics. And often movie stars are used to push the product even further. Dentistry has caused horrible suffering/toxicity, but you'll never see that ugly face of dentistry on their advertisments <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> So the pictures used to support/push the product, so often don't have much to do with the reality of it. But again, that's advertising!
