    That's cool and all, but I'm more into the thought of mounting a couple of big ones and modulating them for long distance secure communications links!

    What?

    The only thing I see this being useful for is draining your cell phone battery. There's a reason that you can only find electric lighters in cars. They have a big battery attached to an even bigger generator.

    @psychiccheese:

    yep. i've always wanted to build a thing that would clip onto a 9 volt battery, but then i did the math - you'd get maybe 10 lights out of it and you risk making the battery explode by basically shorting it out.

    I'm not seeing the humor or cleverness in it. But maybe that's just because I'm getting ready to go down to visit my mother - who may or may not live out the year because of lung cancer.


    People know smoking causes cancer. Instead of making cute and clever anti-smoking ads, perhaps the money should be redirected towards effective treatment for lung cancer.


    Lung cancer kills. It kills a lot more than breast cancer. And, unlike breast cancer, it's not warm and fuzzy with pink ribbons and 5k runs. Less funding for lung cancer awareness and more funding for effective treatment of lung cancer.

    Quitting smoking is incredibly hard. I had my last one on Sept 3, 1993 and I still crave them every single day. At one time, I didnt believe that anything was added to them to make them more addiictive, but I was wrong. Nothing natural is THAT good.

    "At this point, everybody fully understands what cigarettes do to people."


    Looks like this might be in India? Either way, I get the impression it's not Europe, Japan, or North America. So maybe not "everybody" there understands..


    Still, I think this is a dumbass way to get the message across.

    Hmmm, to qualify, I of course meant that in other countries there haven't been quite so many anti-smoking "neducational" campaigns as we have. (This was probably obvious, but I'm trying to avoid the misunderstanding of a troll that would accuse me of racism).

    What's next - an anti-drinking campaign where you have to use an unattractive woman's vagina to pop open your beer?

    Still kinda confused why an anti-smoking ad is enabling smoking.....


    As a smoker, I say let's get these everywhere! I'd never have to buy a lighter just because I left mine at home.

    @rocketbear79: Totally. Nothing better than a commercial block with both an anti-DWI and a Truth ad.


    @Justin Paulson: Yeah, I'm thinking that if they really wanted people to quit smoking, they'd force cigarette mfrs. to print the cigarettes to look like a penis. (Filter end would be the tip, natch).

    i can meet you half way: when i was a kid my dad gave me his old pellet rifle. i'd drop old fashioned matches (non-safety or strike-anywhere or whatever they are called) down the barrel and shoot those. when they hit their target their flare up for a second. i could light our BBQ from 50 paces!
