I know plenty of dirt stupid people who smoke.

I get out more than you ...

I also know more crazy people that smoke. It's not a myth that folks with schizophrenia have a higher ratio of smoker/nonsmoker than other psychiatric illnesses and persons who are not diagnosed.

Not all smokers are schizophrenics, but most schizophrenics smoke. (79% of the schizophrenic patient population according to the first study)
