I've had teenage students who were too nervous even to go to a tobacco shop
to ask for it. They've had to get their parents to go, or with their parents'
permission I've had to get it for them. BTW, have you noticed how hard it is
now to find UNGUMMED papers? Only in the tobacco shops - the drug pharmacies
and variety stores only have the gummed edges, which make me very nervous
around wet pads.
