Easier for brain-damaged smokers to quit

[Al Today]

Watching events unfold…
Enables me to prove, disprove, or adjust my current hypothesis of this BBM we live on.
I swear I seldom get surprised anymore.
I do say 'it figures', a lot.
This is a drama I've been watching for some time now.

We have a new article: ‘Easier for brain-damaged smokers to quit’

But, let us digress for a quick moment.
In another thread was ‘SPOT IN BRAIN MAY CONTROL SMOKING URGE

a silver dollar-sized spot deep in the brain

My spot is the size of a melon, and growing...

From this new article we have…

The scientists think destruction of the insula may take away the pleasant anticipation of the cigarette and the relief from withdrawal symptoms that comes with each inhale.

But…

Missing from the report was mention of other effects of insula damage. The study appeared last week in the journal Science.

I understand how many discuss the electronic assaults and neutering of the human brain.
But, DO NOT FORGET the possiblity of physical assault.
That would indeed create some good emotional food for the bad dudes.
Human experimentation, pain, fear, terror, hopelessness...

edit: ( Perhaps I am watching a new therapy under 'development' to get thos EVIL smokers off those cigarettes !!! We will see won't we??? )

And, I can’t get an old saying out of my mind.
Do I need a lobotomy or a bottle in front of me…
