I just heard that chewing tobacco is not healthier than smoking cigarettes because you just trade lung cancer for throat cancer. Is this true? Are there any other medical harms to chewing tobacco? From a non-smoker who was just wondering, Melissa Silvestre ...{allegra,linus,ccieng5,decvax!brunix}!rayssd!msi

I know of one for people who are AROUND tobacco chewers. Ever been to a
picnic where there are a lot of bottles of Coke or something around, and one
guy is chewin' and spitin' into an empty coke bottle....
I think you get the picture...

A lesson learned in VietNam: Don't ride in the back seat of a jeep behind a driver that chews tobacco.
