On Retreat for 8 weeks

No blogging for a while - on retreat for 8 weeks.  Yes - that is a picture of the retreat centre!

Should we set a date for banning retail tobacco?

Had an article published in the Conversation - which has already attracted 83 comment in the first 48 hours - quite amazing.  The Conversation article was intended to highlight the article published the same day in Drug and Alcohol Review, and a website I set up to further promote discussion about the need for a ban on retail tobacco www.tobacco-ban-australia.org.
