Fuzzy memories of a member who touted a 10 year quit, then one day on the boards copped to 6 years of it having a nicotine gum habit. Can't you feel that hell behind the skull bones, and the devil crunching the numbers? Whatever works, but that formula never includes more nicotine delivery long term. Smoke free is a start, but nicotine free is the monkey off of your back. Its an affliction. This whole quit thing is a mind game, so choose wisely, no matter how much you think you have it clinched, be it a month or a decade free. KTQ Markus Quit 2-18-2008

An interesting exchange of ideas and a fairly civil discourse I might add. I feel for the relapse and am glad for anyone back on the wagon (Train). The mechanics of NOPE are flawless and living it assures perfection, and a forever quit. There are other ways that lead to the same end, and having seen those struggles and final successes over the years prove that these alternative paths are effective as well. But in the end it's all about staying quit isn't it, pledging and doing or living the NOPE? After all of the hyperbole, no matter how you choose to get there you will never achieve freedom from addiction to nicotine by delivering more nicotine into your system. The Law of Addiction paraphrased I suppose. KTQ Markus Quit 2-18-2008

Thanks all! 11 years still smoke free. Was thinking about all the money we have saved, by quitting. It occurred to me that our quits are priceless. You can't buy one, with any amount of money, for yourself or anyone else... KTQ! Markus
