GOOD FOR YOU! It's not an easy thing to do ... quitting smoking! There is one side effect that has not been researched often, and that has to do with your increased sex drive. I wasn't going to mention that but I thought it might make SINSUL smile.

Seriously, I've often wondered how long it will take Americans to realize the duplicity in the smoking 'habit' and the U.S. Army! I was virtually forced to smoke when I first went in the Army. When I walked onthe troop train in 1955, I didn't smoke. My sargent, damn his eyes, gave me $20 and a pack of cigaretts. All through basic, every hour, you'd hear:"BREAK TIME. SMOKE 'EM IF YOU'VE GOT 'EM ... POLICE CALL IF YOU DON'T!" Police call meant you had to crawl on your hands and knees and pick up the cigarette butts of those who did smoke! I learned to smoke early on.

So again ... good for you! CHEERS, Bob(deckman)Nelson
