Hey...congrats on quitting smoking.   I just quit, and I've been smoking
since I was 15 years old.  (I'm 28 now).  I tend to agree with you that 
it might be a psychological addiction.  That is what it was for me.  So 
far, I havent smoked in 5 weeks.  Dropped it cold turkey.  And to date,
I've had no /real/ withdrawal symtoms.  Oh yeah, I've wanted one once
in a while, but not so I *HAD* to have one. Of course I dont know what 
you smoked, but I was somewhat health consious(sp?) the last 10 yrs.
(Kinda a contradiction in terms...health consious and smoking huh)
I used to smoke the fads...Marlboro, Winston, Kool, Salem, but the last 
10 yrs, I've smoked Carlton..the lowest of the low in tar and nicotine.
That probably had something to do with my nicotine dependance..or lack 
of it.  KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
