I just think there is a lot of baggage that is attributed to nicotine on account of the health effects of smoking.
You say nicotine, and people immediately think evil.
I've been off an on (the gum) many times and do not find it terrably addictive.
I'd say ritalin has more abuse potential, yet the word "nicotine" still sound more evil than "ritalin".
The baby gets thrown out with the bathwater. Nicotine may be theraputic in many circumstances.
