Amount saved by not Smoking

I had forgotten about a counter I had for quiting smoking. At it's setting of $4.50 a pack, I have saved $6582.54 and counting since 2007 by not smoking. Incredible !! I think about this addiction to nicotine how it has affected my life. I am still fighting the battle. I suppose some say I have a addictive personality. Know it's weight, in my case I didn't gain the 20 pounds, people usually talk about I gained 100 lbs. Leading a sedimentary lifestyle, working on the computer 8-9 hours a day. Now that is my new battle.

Beijing is to impose smoking ban

4-30-08
Beijing is to impose smoking ban so says, Jill McGivering on BBC News. The Chinese authorities are due to ban smoking in most public buildings in the capital Beijing, starting on Thursday.
For every three cigarettes lit worldwide, one is smoked in China. Almost 25% of the Chinese smoke. My goodness that is a lot of Chantix and patches to sell.
The WHO is discussing further measures with the government, like an increase in taxes on cigarettes. But smoking is big business,and business in China is just like here only when there is enough money in it for the CEO's and politicians will things change to the next excess. However, financial loss now could be more than off-set by savings on health care in the future, is one way to think about it. but if the American model is used they could let it go & it will help with the population problem.

Smoking & My Nose

I have sleep apnea, when I first got my air mask last year I was still smoking. I had noticed after a short time the rubber thingyies that went into the nostrils had turned color. I assumed it was just normal. This winter i had to get a new mask & nose pieces and after wearing it for 4 months it dawned on me that the nose pieces never turned brown. It was the nicotine that had collected in my nose, transfered onto the nose pieces. Now no one smokes around here, so no nicotine in the air.
