Congratulations, Although I am a 2 pack a day smoker for 18 yrs, I wonder sometimes with all the health risk out there why these things havnt been banned,My guess is the federal government makes a lot of money on them in taxes, but banning python species? Im absolutely sure that cigarettes have killed more people in this country than pythons. I have tried the patch and gum myself numerous times without success and its very very difficult. Good for you my friend...........
