I think smoking also has its appeal because it can feel really good when you do it. I started smoking not because it was cool, or because it was rebellious (in fact i resisted for a long time because i thought it was lame), but because when i did it, it felt good.

Yeah, I didn't think of that but it's very true as well. I have very sensitive -something- so can't enjoy smoking myself. I can relate to it very well however when I think of alcohol usage. While not widely considered as much of an issue, alcohol is very unhealthy too but it's hard not to enjoy. That said I wouldn't ban it or make it illegal. It is poison but in the end you can say a lot of things are poisonous. I wouldn't want to live in a world that didn't have any poison.
