I live in Italy and actually I have a different impression; smokers are decreasing (-15%), especially since new more restrictive laws about smoking in public places (2 years ago): they are 11 million, 22% of population. About lung cancer, there are 30,000 new cases every year, over a population of 59 millions (total, not only because of smoke). I took that from Italian magazines. Here's a comparison, although up to date to 2002: http://www.euphix.org/object_document/o4664n27172.html http://www.euphix.org/object_document/o4860n27172.html
