There are many aids like gums, patches and pills on the market that will help people to stop smoking. A lot of people are helped by these products, but they do not work for everyone. If you’re a smoker who has tried to quit time and time again, but have not been helped by other methods, chantix may be a welcome alternative. http://www.chantixhome.com/

Thanks, farley.

I was taught that Love and Hate are strong words, and should be used sparingly and with consideration.

I HATE smoking.

Joe,

Good post!

In the tasting room, we can't stand it when people smoke outside and then come up to taste. The smell seems to permeate everything. As with too much perfume, it ruins the whole experience for everyone, just as you say.

I was a smoker for a while but finally quit for good a few years ago due to improving my health. When I started back a little, it was my wine tasting skills that quickly nipped that 'in the buds' as it really does affect your sense of smell and taste.

I'm e-mailing this to my boyfriend (who's trying to quit) right now.

Thanks!

I’ve never smoked. However, a few of my family members did and I am sure it played a part in the death of my grandfather.

I also play music from time to time in very smoky bars – which is probably the equivalent of me smoking 2-4 (or more) cigs during those gigs…
