Dear Editor:
Now that the silent majori-

their financial, moral and
medical displeasure over our
sacrifice paid to support the
impaired driving syndrome
andthe inalienable rights of
the smokers, I would like to
write my "two cents worth",
for concerned citizens and our
changing public attitidues.
I verse my opinion in my
personal song called
Turn the Record Over

heard it too long
Over and oyer.I've heard that
same song
Once it was a whisper but
it's coming on strong.
Turn the record over I've
heard it too long
Everything fs fun if you
smoke or you drink
That's another fable they
want you to think
Why not save your money and
your health from the pain
It's money up in smoke or
down the drain.
