It takes more upkeep, burns more fuel and is slow 33 the starting line because it depends on learning a (an)34process instead of instinct. Plenty of other species are able to learn, and one of the things theyve apparently learned is when to stop. Is there an adaptive value to35intelligence? Thats the question behind this new reach.

This is not a surprise to public health advocates.Theyve studied the effect of state tax increases for years，finding that smokers，especially teens，are price sensitive.Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
