I quit on March 10th 1991. I have no idea how poor I would be, physically and financially, if I would have continued.. I quit cold turkey as well and I can tell you, I was a real BEAR to be around for a while.. Congrats Jim! I know what a great accomplishment it is.. You should celebrate by caching!!

Somehow or other I went cold turkey, never have wanted to ever since. I just figured that at $3.00 a pack, I would've spent $36,135. And that I would've smoked 240,900 cigarettes at that rate. I sure don't miss them. Makes me feel like taking a hike, maybe Buford Mountain. Jim
