Great American Smokeout.

I don't often get on my soapbox, but today I will. Please, if you smoke, consider this day as an opportunity to at least consider quitting. I know, some of you may say it's your choice, or it's your body, or no one should tell me what to do. But there are people out there who love you or who mean a lot to you who would like to see you alive for a bit longer. The Great American Smokeout traditionally takes place on the third Thursday of November, right before Thanksgiving. For information on the day and on quitting smoking, here are some sites:

A small page from the CDC

From quitsmoking.com

From the American Cancer Society (this one has a lot of interactive stuff, so may load slow for some people I think).
