Intro:

It has been recently revealed according to a poll, that those people who smoke merely one cigarette in a day tend to think they aren’t smokers at all. They tend to think they have overcome their smoking habit and that one simple ‘idly pidly’ cigarette per day will not harm them.

There are as many as 51% people who feel that that they aren’t smokers if they are hooked to the once cigarette per day habit.
