Wino Posted November 9, 2009 Author Report Posted November 9, 2009 People who choose to smoke are not that easily deterred.Yes, I know. How long have they been putting warnings on cigarette packs? When they first did that, I remember my smoking friends all saying that there was no proof and that warning was just to scare you. Anyway, I just thought the ceiling painting was interesting.
lvdkeyes Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Interesting? yes, effective? doubtful.
Wino Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Posted November 10, 2009 Yes, it is interesting, but a smoker is not going to quit until he wants to quit. Even if he wants to quit, it is very difficult. I worked with a guy that tried to quit for years. He tried hypnosis, acupuncture, pills and will power, but had no success. Last time I saw him, he was still smoking.
lvdkeyes Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Way back in 1976, I decided to quit smoking and have not had a single cigarette or cigar or pipe or anything else to smoke since.

You are lucky you have the willpower to quit and stick to it. I had a neighbor that had lung cancer, had surgery, told to quit but kept smoking. He was on oxygen and kept smoking. The lung cancer returned but he kept smoking until the day he died.
