I was absolutely convinced that the clouds were made from cigarette and cigar smoke and that the reason some people wanted the smokers to quit was so the sun would shine every day. I used to get so mad at my parents (and everyone else) when they would smoke outside and was 14 before I learned the truth. I still hate smokers, though!!
