Twenty percent of the population or twelve out of every sixty years are Chinese Fire Animals. Years of the Dragon add four more years to somewhere just under 27% of any given population over any given lifetime or two.
Occidentally, around 25% of all Zodiac signs are Fire, and then there are less influential factors such as ascendant or moon.
If family history might be left for another topic, and considering the stars that you just happen to have been born under without your prior consent, and taking into account that it's a perpetual minority in a perfect world without any of the obvious pros or cons, how significant could one's horoscope be in the decision to enjoy tobacco or not? Nature or nurture? |

| Too much scope in the question. Not enough lines on the page. |

That would probably indicate more of a 'nurture' type cause, ie. peer-group pressure, rather than the 'nature' of the stars at date and time of birth.
Peer-group pressure allows little room for development, but that's always a personal choice. |

I thought you were referring to "Huh ?" as word salad.
Clearly a peer-group pressure influence in that case.

I can't think of a way to write it more succinctly, so maybe you might be able to elaborate on the specific areas that confused small-bird? I thought that horoscopes would be fairly common knowledge on the Internet by now. |

Here is some information about word salad, in case you don't know what it is:

Schizophasia is another term for this kind of writing. I may be way out in left field. Sometimes my imagination runs away with me.
Are you a native English speaker or is English a second or third language? That's another explanation for the strange word sequences. |
