Smokers Quit and Blog About It

From the American Cancer Society:
On November 17, the day of the Great American Smokeout, smokers will attempt to stay smoke-free for 24-hours and blog all day long about the experience. You may read their blogs and post comments to them at quitnowblog.org. The American Cancer Society hopes to show other college-age young adults that nicotine addiction is very real, anyone who smokes can become addicted and that quitting is harder than you think.
