Dear Friends

It has been pointed out to me that there was an error in the reporting of
the UK Court victory on the SCOTH report. The SCOTH report did not
conclude that passive smoking caused mouth and pharnyx cancer as stated in
the Reuters news report.  The cancer which was the subject of the legal
wrangling was lung cancer.

Apologies.
