2. Care to expand on this? I thought you would post the treatment
or a link to some site or something. One sure cure is dying.

was a heart attack and triple bypass surgery.....works like a charm...but I don't recommend it.

10. Wow!
4th Heart Attack? I had one and I don't want to do that again. As my dear, old 100% Polish Father-in-Law used to say, "Hell, I'm Polish and I wouldn't do that again!"

I'm sorry for your loss.

3. Have someone you love die suddenly of lung cancer?
That did it for me. That and the patch.

9. I wish that had been strong enough to break my and my wife's
addictions, but it wasn't. That's embarassing to admit but maybe that in itself will help me quit someday. I should have taken up heroin as a monkey. Less lung damage and probably less expensive because you tend to die quicker.

6. I read a report of a UK study a while back...
It used an antibody (in injection form) that attaches to/absorbs/whatever the nicotine molecules, making them useless for ending the craving.

In some timeframe (i don't remember), something like 80% stopped smoking entirely, 15% drastically cut down, and 5% it had no effect.
