Here are some quotes from the 1982 annual report of Philip
Morris:

	"Scientists have been unable to prove that the
	healthy nonsmokers is harmed by his neighbor's
	smoking;" [...]

	"...The record is clear.  The people who enjoy
	smoking have steadily prevailed over those who
	oppose it, and the industry which serves them
	has continually grown and prospered."

Prevailed!?  Maybe we should all by one share of their stock
and flood their office with stockholder's complaints. If a bunch of
us buy single shares the administrative costs should put a dent in
their $6.23 earnings per share.

Any other ideas?
