I too found that smoking a pipe (correctly) and really learning to stop and enjoy it utterly destroyed my craving for a quick nic fix. I sometimes go for a day or two without lighting a pipe because--I guess I forget or get distracted; it's not about addiction anymore. Other days I smoke 5 in a row because--well it just tastes so damned good. In all things moderation...especially moderation. Congratulations, and stick with it, teamhavoc.
