L2,

That is very good to know!

As for the US Military data on smoking and pilots, I think they are looking for EVERYTHING that can improve performance.

I read an interesting book on smoking a few years back called, "Smoking, the artificial passion". I think it was by Jansce, but I really can't recall. It was pointed out that smoking/nicotine was the only drug where the user could produce the desired effect based on their current emotional state. If you were down, smoking could give you a lift, and of course the opposite too. The author claimed this "dual effect" increased the drugs addictive potential.

I dunno, but Michigan added $.75 in tax to every pack on July 1. Maybe its time to quit.

Right.

Good Trading
