| #3 So it isn't just tobacco. It's all the other crops too. Tobacco is one of the very few crops which is burned and its smoke inhaled. Inhalation of things like polonium, cadmium, lead & arsenic has a very different effect from the swallowing of the same materials unburned. Tobacco & its typical use puts this situation in a class by itself. Perhaps Chinese smoking habits will result in a decrease in old-age benefits paid out in that country. |

| #2 "Tobacco like other crops absorbs minerals and other things from the soil, so if the soil has cadium, lead or arsenic, they will be absorbed into the tobacco," Fong said. So it isn't just tobacco. It's all the other crops too. |
