He warned longer cigs may reach 15 percent of the market this year and reduce the impact of any tar nicotine reductions. He noted 71 percent of surveyed snipers favor disclosed contents and that experts agree lower tar and nicotine lessen harm though some doubt very low nicotine satisfies heavy smokers.
