1. I'd rather say "я тоже" in this case ;) "Я также" sounds a bit weird/outdated.
Также как и ты, я Рыбы. (As well as you, I'm Piscies).
Я Рыбы по знаку зодиака. - Я тоже!
Do you see the difference? :)

2. No idea. Most people whom I know either gave up smoking long ago aor are quitting now - we, women smokers, are a minority :)

1. That's what I wrote at first! But I tried checking it with a translator page, and it produced the other phrase. I'm used to compensating for differences in grammar, but since the word itself was different I thought it must be more right...

2. Maybe you could take their example :-). Part of the reason I took note of this, was that I read this story a few weeks ago: Female smokers 'double in Russia'. So you may be a minority, but it's a growing minority!
