    Jesus Sonovabitch, I agree, I am still addicted to nicotine, which incidentally is not a carcinogenic substance. The harm from cigarettes comes from the smoke, not from the nicotine. I've been lowering the dosage, and by the summer I figure I'll be done. It took a while to stop feeling like having a cigarette every time I saw people smoking on the street. My lungs have stopped their polyphonic chorus of wheezing at night. A better analogy than snorting or shooting cocaine would be methadone treatment for heroin addicts- it keeps withdrawal at bay. The e-cig keeps me from wanting to smoke burning tobacco leaves, which are highly carcinogenic.

    Say what you like. They've kept me off cigarettes for almost four months now, after 42 years of smoking. I've tried everything else, and this is the only thing that's worked. We're trying to break addictions here.

    I learned this from Goofy on a cartoon show about how to use freeways.

    Geez, now I'm wondering if I know Fonebone and Otterbox. I practically lived at the Eye.

    Umm, as Odin's Eye closed in 1979, it must have been the 70s calling. (it became The Space for a while before shutting down completely). Yes, Ken Silver was great, but Steve Penney did a lot of nice posters too.

    Re: “Helmets a Plenty
    Many of those cities also have bike lanes that are separated from the general traffic by barriers.
