Which doesn't even give you an intoxication***, so tobacco addiction
is in fact a weird waste of money ;-)
*** Is this the correct term?
Yes, that term works. Actually nicotine does have a sort of
intoxication, there's a buzz, especially if you go without for a few
hours. The next cigarette makes you feel a little stoned. If you keep
your nicotine level constant then there's no buzz.
I smoke a narghile, and only about once every 4 or 5 weeks; the effect
is just about the same as 3-4 glasses of strong red-wine without the
headache later on. Medical research has shown that owing to the water
filtration of the tobacco smoke it has the same negative health effects
if smoked for 3 hours non-stop as 1 normal cigarette.
