About the Author: Michael Shone Sr has always had a knack for getting into real life unusual situations. A Sea Scout in High School, US Coast Guard, and after 30 years of building ships, he worked through college and became a state certified drug and alcohol counselor. His focus was constantly drawn towards Nicotine during his research to find the plan that would really put a positive in a person's desire to quit cigarettes and other smoked drugs. After watching decades of failure with addictions, he knew that a totally different approach had to be directed towards the destroyer - Nicotine. His thinking is that most professionals haven't really lived under enough bridges, been in prison ever, and with diligence picked up cigarette butts from the gutter for years on end. Only a true addict can relate the subtle influences and feelings that cause a person to remain in the clutches of addiction, Nicotine being the leader of the pack, no pun intended.
