Hi Rita -
LOL! I thought I did have a name change there for a second. First, I really appreciate your answer, as this was a really important question for me. It is really helpful to be able to ask this of someone who has been a smoker for several years, and reassuring to hear that at least the inhaling part still feels nice after the amount of time that you have been smoking. At this stage, it is what I enjoy the most, and that is why this was such an important question for me to ask. I know from the discussion that there are some things to watch out for in the future, especially intake, but it seems you have been able to control things to a level you are comfortable with. Has this been difficult for you in any way, and is it a matter of will power for you? Also, I know that addiction can happen, and was wondering if that was difficult at first for you in any way, or is it something that gradually happens? I know it might be different for different people and I accept that, but I was curious and I hope you do not mind me asking.
Thanks again for your response Rita...really appreciate it!
Will (or Bill...either is fine)
