Aside from my survey response here: there's an awful lot of people giving reasons for stopping smoking when their previous answers say that they do not, and have never smoked.

Perhaps OP, you can mention that. A lot of people have opinions on the detrimental effects of cigarettes, who have a lack of personal experience with them. (I'm not saying cigarettes aren't bad for you btw).

Granted, I did answer number 12, because I was in doubt if it applied for non-smokers like me as well, or just smokers, well, I answered what I believe in with no sort of prejudice, better safe than sorry heh?
