Horrors! Vonnegut smoked!!!

From truthout.org :

Kurt Vonnegut Dies at 84

http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/041207K.shtml

Kurt Vonnegut, whose dark comic talent and urgent moral vision in novels like "Slaughterhouse-Five," "Cat's Cradle" and "God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater" caught the temper of his times and the imagination of a generation, died last night in Manhattan. He was 84.

[ So this most excellent writer, from reports, fell and the results of that fall killed him. Now how could that possibly be? The NY Times online even published a photo of the man exhaling cigarette smoke. The man was a life-long smoker, and everybody knows that if one even gets a whiff of tobacco smoke, one is liable to fall over dead on the spot. I mean, he was only 84. Right? Right. ]
