		Szymanczyk, testifying in the trial of a class-action suit filed by Florida residents with smoking-related illnesses, said he removed the slogan "Find your voice" from the ads after being deposed by plaintiffs' attorney Stanley M. Rosenblatt, who had suggested it might be offensive to smokers with throat cancer.
		Szymanczyk said that slogan was set to "expire anyway" and be discontinued at the end of June.
