It is very hard to feel sorry for tobacco companies, but I felt a bit of sympathy when Brown and Williamson, a subsidiary of British American Tobacco, was held responsible by a Florida jury for the lung cancer contracted by a 65-year-old man named Grady Carter, who used to smoke Lucky Strike until he finally admitted tht they had not been so lucky for him. ..... Apparently, the jury found against Brown and Williamson because of convincing evidence that, for years after their own research had proved conclusively that smoking causes cancer, they -- like all other tobacco companies -- went on denying the link.
