Everyone loves a quitter

I've never smoked, but those who have tell me that quitting is one of the most difficult things in life. My mother quit in the mid-sixties, before I was born. As far as I know she hasn't had a cigarette since. I've never seen her smoke -- yet she tells me she still gets cravings now and then.

Today Oh No Nellie, with whom I used to work, announced that she is quitting. She'll need help to get through the process, but, as Eric Burdon once sang (about something else), "it will be worth it."
