(Translation: "I came, I saw, I conquered.")
My outrage at discovering this odious Philip-Morris logo, boldly emblazened upon each and every pack of Marlboro (Marlboro Lights and Marlboro Ultra-Lights) cigarettes for the past 51 years, enabled me to stop smoking in 1999.

in the early 2000's i called our friends at philip-moris and asked them why would they put that as their logo and what is it exactly they were conquering? the woman on the other line was dumb founded and had no answers for me. coinsidently, a short time later it was gone off all the packs? you can still find it on pal-mal? i am amazed at how many people live their lives going about their daily routines without any regaurd to the controll of the "illuminati" if i may dare say. when will "we" as a nation realize there is power in numbers? not untill our power is gone.
