As a smoker. Whatever the boost you get, you do not need it. In fact, when trying to quit you can get more productive just by trying to substitute chemical boost by intellectual boost (e.g. reading.) I smoke and appreciate the satisfaction of nicotine, but let's not rationalize out irrational behaviour. On the other hand, it is annoying when people insist that we quit or want to imply it is an indicator of irrationality in general. If it is not illegal, let us do it. Whatever additional health cost for society, we are bearing it. Either directly, via increased insurance rates or indirectly via the exorbitant taxes we are paying. So why do you care? We do not need no nannies.
