Paul Baskin is 70 years old...he volunteers like a 30 year old anticipating a bonus.
As a result of Paul's efforts, there is no smoking in public places in Prescott, AZ; those who are in poverty are receiving help through Circles of Support in Prescott; more agenies were being supported by the local United Way as a result of his former presidency; non-profit agencies throughout the U.S. are receiving grant writing assitance from Grants To You which he founded; folks needing assistance with their job search are experiencing more success due to the founding of the local Community Job Connection group and high school students are receiving guidance from Paul through his "Job Search, Job Find, Job Get" lectures and his helpful Blog... jobsearchjobfindjobget.blog.com.
This is no doubt that Paul Baskin has made an enormous difference

This man has done so much for the smoking issue, but has he looked into the fried food offered to Kids today. Heart and diabetes & being overweight are the #1 and 2 diseases today affecting our Kids. May be he should look in the fast food restraunt menu's and see if he could get them to change them or outlaw the french fries and burgers that our loaded with fat (the bad Kind) which are distroying our kids livers & pllugging their arteries, which will cause heart problems down the road.

Wow this guy is really full of himself. Many people do critical volunteer work in their communities and don't brag about it. Look at all of the Katrina volunteers, Doctors Without Boarders, etc. Big deal he got smoking outlawed. It's already outlawed everywhere else!
