\\nI would like to thank those many people who have written in to give us their thoughts and ideas for the continual improvement of our show. From the very beginnings Andrew Dorfman and I have conceived of the Sonic Society as a collective effort. It is a partnership beginning with those who kindly offer us their works, and ending with you our listening members. We believe very deeply in audio drama\'s cause and look forward to bringing you more and more of your favourites while presenting new shows you might not have heard before. So please if you haven\'t dropped us a line, email us at sonicsociety@gmail.com to give us your thoughts on how we can improve. \\n

\\nThe idea for this story came from a simple walk to the local Corner Store. There I met a middle-aged woman buying a pack of smokes. Not exactly an unusual sight. Now I don\'t smoke, and I don\'t really understand the habit, but neither is it for me to judge. I did note however there was a huge picture of a diseased lung and warning labels all over the package as is the law in Canada. Basically, it struck me, this woman was paying with full knowledge that this was going to kill her. Maybe that\'s true, maybe it isn\'t.
\\nThe fact is, it seemed a little absurd and I mumbled out loud yet entirely to myself, "It wouldn\'t matter if they attached electrodes to those... would it?"
\\nThe woman heard me (which startled me to no end) and grinned saying as she opened the pack, "Not a bit."\\n

\\nThere\'s a story in that, I was certain. I hope you\'ll agree. \\n

\\nSit back and relax as we present for the first time ever, an old Shadowlands Theatre story, "Spin, Spin, Spin". Followed by episode #4 of Biff Straker and Spaceways.'
