Just Differently Intelligent...

Interesting read, as I sit here and smoke my cigarette. Addiction is problematic - full of cultural and social values with social control as the driving force. Remember when the Internet boom started - numerous psychologists were writing about internet addiction. Though once most people were online, this died out.
It doesn't surprise me that the medical 'professionals' want to do this (where is Foucault when we need him). Just another way to self regulate ourselves. Personally, when I get through my dissertation - than I will stop smoking. UNtil then...puff...puff.....I won't, no matter how deviant I am perceived to be :)

Cool. I suppose if there is any truth to this, then I might blame/thank my father for my penchant for smoking. "Hey, I was hooked before I was potty trained!" If a single butt can leave one addicted, then close proximity to a man smoking several packs a day in one's face could easily lead to dependency. Still not sure how to use the article to explain how I quit smoking for over five years after waking one morning to find that my butts no longer tasted good to me. Five years later the smell of a fuming butt beside me was so appealing, I bummed one. And they continue to taste good. [insert sound of Zippo lighter striking.] Time to go print out that article, use it to roll a phattie, and tell myself that I could be out destroying my knees running on paved streets instead.

(Okay, so I'm still not potty trained at 40+ years. Once I am, maybe then I'll consider quitting the evil weed. Then it's time to work on my addictions to orange juice and fresh vegetables....)

I grew up in a smoking household,and I agree with both of you. Though I'm potty trained.

I tried smoking when I was a kid but I could not continue since I had asthma. I never though I would say this - Thanks God for that asthma otherwise I would dead and buried by now.
