You could be right. I smoked for about 13 years, and then quit in 5 days, that was over 4 years ago. I tried one of my mum's last week and nearly vomited though, lol.
I haven't been around smokers for a long time too, my mom smokes players light, I just about barfed when I got a whiff of her smoking on my porch... Right in front of my window fan...so much for taking it outside.
