Category:Tobacco cessation
- Propose renaming Category:Tobacco cessation to Category:Smoking cessation
- Nominator's rationale: It is smoking that is the target of cessation - not tobacco. It is not correct to say that tobacco is being stopped (cessation). Tobacco will always grow. We cannot tell it to stop!! ...

... Physicists couldn't figure out how they flew, and they did it because nobody told them that they couldn't, and because of of sheer will and determination. And I come from a long line of bumblebees, and I'm so proud. And my brother, who's up there in the balcony. And I'm really grateful that no one ever told me that I couldn't do it, that I couldn't fly. ...
I can honestly say that Nikki M. James is my heroine/hero.
- Hmmm... Never having heard of NMJ, I cannot comment on the appropriateness or honesty of your appreciation, but the thought that crossed my mind was that the passage you quote suggests a radical ignorance of bumblebees and physicists (and fairy flies... Hercules beetles... aerodynamicists... whatever...) Oh well, back to J. L. Seagull... :-)
- Now the tobacco cessation quote OTOH, that makes some sense; I love tobacco for its sheer biological, ecological and pharmacological interest, its various smells from field to farm to curing sheds to tobacconist's shop, till some stupid ********s set fire to the product and make everything stink
- Anyway, what I really meant to ask was: "Where is what?" And anyway, I don't think you signed your question. Not that I mind, but out of context it was a bit disconcerting. JonRichfield (talk) 06:51, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
