   I don’t know really. My Dad was diagnosed with lung cancer when he was 56 years old.

   I have the correct answer to this question because I just heard a cancer research doctor give a lecture with slides of his new research. The answer is that the lung cancer starts 20 years after you start smoking…almost exactly and almost every time.
