Good on all of you quitters! Please, keep it up.

I'm a lifetime non-smoker. Both parents smoked and suffered serious health effects as a result. Mother died at age 55 from a heart attack. No doubt in my mind, due in large part to her 35 year smoking habit. Watched my father with emphysema, so diabled that to walk from the front door to the car, a distance of perhaps thirty feet, that he had to stop and "rest" half way.

As a kid second hand smoke just made me sick to be around and when I was a kid virtually ALL of my extended family smoked.

May I ask? What made you start smoking?

Thanks,
Jeff, still a fat biker
