    My trivia question stumped Google. Help, anyone?

    I wanted to remember which brand of cigarettes used to advertise on TV (for those who could still remember that far back ....) with the tagline "Are you smoking more now and enjoying it less?"

    I searched on Google with that tagline and I got an amusing connection (with Alfred Hitchcock) - but not the answer to which brand of cigarettes.

    Instead of trying to run it down myself (the hard way), I thought that I'd put this up here as possibly your first online trivia question of 2006.


    That's rinselberg™ - thanks for being part of it.

    Yup, found it on google.com. It was an advertising campaign for un-filtered Camels.

    Thank you Jacqui and Judy. This will make a good looking footnote to one of my posts - in another forum. Click on this URL and you can see one of those old Camel print ads:

    And that reminds me, what goes better with one popular and well advertised "vice", than another one?
