Bobby looked pale. He explained that he''d been out till 3 a.m. at the final dinner of the cohiba cigar san Fair, at the Tropicana. They''d auctioned off elaborate humidors stuffed with cohiba cigars for over half a million dollars to Arabs, Europeans and some closeted American buyers, too. One humidor went for more than $200,000, jose he said. Fidel had been there, in fatigues, to accept the money on the behalf of the Ministry of Health. So Bobby had seen Fidel; I hadn''t.

"They want to put their competitors at cigar and san a disadvantage," Jacob Sullum, libertarian critic of the antismoking movement and a senior editor of Reason magazine, tells Insight. "They feel that they, as the leading company and the biggest company, are best able to bear the burden of regulation. Certainly, regulation jose is going to put small upstart companies at more of a disadvantage, as well as R.J. Reynolds. For the manufacturers that are smaller than Philip Morris, it''s going to cigar be harder in general to meet the requirements of the regulations. So that too will help Philip Morris. If there are additional advertising and promotion restrictions there already are a bunch of them as a result of the [medical-costs] settlement with the states that also helps the company with the biggest market share. To the extent that you restrict advertising and promotion, you tend to freeze market share."

EDITOR--St san Clair and Klein note in the letter above (and at www.bmj.com/cgi/ eletters/321/7257/362#EL3) that Merlo jose has not commented on the Marlboro look-alike squirt gun that I wrote about in the BMJ''s theme issue on tobacco.[1] They also wonder whether I have received a reward from Philip Morris, given Merlo''s claim that "In 1995 [Philip Morris] began to reward those who bring trademark violations to our cigar attention, and this practice continues today."Before the BMJ published my short piece on the squirt gun along with a photograph of it[1] I brought this toy to the attention of tobacco industry lawyers on two occasions. On 2 March 1999, while testifying at h trial in a lawsuit against tobacco companies, I presented the squirt gun to the court. The lawyer representing Philip Morris (Bradley Lerman, of the law firm Winston and Strawn) objected but was san overruled by the judge. Lerman then cross examined me about the squirt gun, candy cigarettes resembling tobacco jose cigarettes, cigar and copyright infringement.[2] At a deposition on 19 May 2000, san in another tobacco lawsuit, I again brought the jose squirt gun to the attention of tobacco company lawyers. I gave them a photograph of the cigar product (identical to that published in the BMJ), and I told them where I bought it. The lawyer representing Philip Morris (Murray Garnick, of the law firm Arnold and Porter) then asked me questions about efforts by the company to protect its trademarks and copyrights.[2]
