In general, scrubbing cigarettes out of kid's cartoons seems like a good move to me if it results in even one less person taking up that tragic addiction-as long as it's not a government forced move.
Oops, that was meant to go on the previous thread.
This is an example of why I never complain about the H&R server squirrels-cuz I make abundant goofs of my own accord.
That's the most disturbing thing I've ever seen, not counting the Rainbow Brite "Trojans" commercial.
