Lapides in Gatlinburg, TN. after researching the relationship between health and the chemicals used in the production of cigarettes, they specialize in the sale of pipes, pipe tobacco, cigars, chewing tobacco and Jester RYO tobacco. Be sure to check-out the "Tobacco Cover up" section of the site which chronicles Dr. Lapides struggle to initiate a public debate about the difference between real tobacco and commercial cigarettes with chemical additives. After being ignored and ridiculed by 'big media' for years, he finally resorted to a hunger strike which he kept up for 22 days in 1993, only stopping after receiving an offer to air his views on the ABC News "Day One" program.

YeSmoke
OK this one is kinda freaky, YeSmoke was previously one of the largest online sellers of duty-free cigarettes, (roughly 6 million cartons per year) and operated out of Switzerland. Then Phillip Morris filed a $548 Million lawsuit against Yesmoke, and somehow took over their web domain yesmoke.com. Now YeSmoke's website is run from Italy, and they claim their sole mission now is to shout about the evils of the Big Tobacco Companies, convince us all how smoking is bad for us, list the chemical ingredients, and urge us to quit smoking, etc. Yet at the same time they are whining about how their innocent attempt to set-up a new cigarette manufacturing plant and distribution system in Switzerland is being held up by Big Tobacco Companies who are pressuring the Swiss credit card processing company. Huh? What?
