Bubba, I agree with you 100%. Knowledge is power! I was listening to a syndicated talk radio show this last weekend, a physician (we won't name names) has his own show. At any rate, he mentioned the fact that the people who are most successful at quitting smoking are those who do not prepare, those who just wake up one day and say "this is it", and quit cold turkey then and there. I beg to differ with him on that. I would think most people have had nagging thoughts and have done some prep work (whether they realize it or not) long before "this is it" makes its appearance. I knew I was ready, but I also knew I needed lots of support and education to be successful. I think the part of what he said that holds true, however, is the being ready part. I think a successful quitter is one who wants to quit more than anything else, and is willing to do anything, suffer everything and give up a few things in order to achieve it.
