Changing the color of flames is easy- just add something to the fuel source. If I remember flame testing from my 11th grade Chemistry for Budding Pyromaniacs class correctly, copper burns blue or green depending upon what substance it's in, f'r'instance. |

The problem with doing this for a cigarette is that you'd have to breathe the metal in question. Now, to some degree cigarette smokers already do this- tobacco is relatively rich in metals. But whether they would want more metals- or whether adding copper or rubidium or whatever would interfere with the rich, smooth taste smokers crave- is a broader problem. |
