Coming soon - new and revised websites
Saturday, November 24, 2007 
We're working hard to complete the revised Forest website. Although the new site is a slimmed down version of the current one, the project has taken longer than anticipated. The customised CMS (content management system) is new and there have been one or two technical faults to iron out during the development stage, but we're getting there.
We've appointed a new website manager and the revised site will go live early in the new year. It will coincide with the launch of the all new Free Society site (left), which I'm equally excited about. TFS is designed to be interactive, so we will be encouraging your comments on a wide range of issues, from smoking, eating and drinking to speeding, global warming, CCTV cameras and more.
This blog, too, will be re-launched. All three sites will be advertised on the Internet with a view to attracting more traffic. The Forest website currently averages 4,000 visitors a day. We intend to increase that number and encourage people to engage not only with Forest but also with our Free Society campaign and, via that, Taking Liberties. Watch this space.

I'd like to comment on your response to Chris. (TV debate about ETS? Dream on ...) where you said " There are several reasons why it won't happen, but the main one is that the anti-smoking industry will simply refuse to take part."
This is very true.
But what about them not taking part? Because as Chris mentions it would be epidemiologists and respected medical practitioners taking part.
In fact, how bout no Anti's, and just a programme based on the showing of the true facts about the harmlessness of SHS?
1) They would get a lot of viewers. (Translation- Money for the producers) and
2) They would run circles around the Anti's lies.
