It's just that about 24% of them don't. How expensive was your habit? (One woman who turned her life around (it took about eight years) got up to $500 a day and stayed there for about a year.) What produced the change in your life?

When I was a kid in the 70's, there were public service ads, songs like Freddy's Dead and The Pusher, and I remember the Grand Funk radio spots warning young people of the dangers of using drugs.
