No pissing match, I consider it a good discussion by good people.
Toronto, IMO it's not so much the state of mind induced by the presence of nicotine as it is the state of mind induced by it's absence that I focus on as problematic. The cravings, abnormal and such. Smoking poison only to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. Suicidal madness all of it! A human mind & body is being compromised and stolen, and damaged by an insidious addictive drug sold by felonious men I would cross the street to avoid. I wish recovery and freedom from addiction to all who need it. Be it from booze, drugs, smoking, whatever. Go the whole distance. Peace!
