PftoGRAM News Channel 8 Anne Nyberg, co-anchor: If there's no smoke, is it still a cigarette? The Philip Morris Company says yes. It is testing a smokeless tobacco system that uses a special cigarette and a pager-sized lighter to reduce smoke, ash and odor. The cigarette is battery powered so it's only lit when the smoker inhales. That reduces ninety percent of the second hand smoke. They call it The Accord Smokeless System and about one hundred smokers in the U.S. and Japan will be trying it out. Brian Burnell, co-anchor: So you have to put this whole thing up to your mouth Nyberg: I guess. Burnell: ...if you're going to smoke? Nyberg: Why not just kick the habit? Burnell: Seems like that would make more sense, doesn't it? Nyberg: Probably. # # # For a videocessettelTYJ or audio cessettefiadiol of this news segment contact your naerest YMS office.
