Title: Want to quit smoking but can't? The solution is here!

"With the Nicosphere 3000 you can enjoy the smoking freedom of yesterday with the smoking technology of tomorrow"
(http://www.nicosphere3000.com/assets/img/bloke.jpg)

The breath-taking design of the Nicosphere 3000 signals a breakthrough for smokers of all ages. Using the latest Nicological technology, the Nicosphere 3000 offers a discreet smoking environment for its user. The system has six smoking programmes, all designed to fit your busy lifestyle and has been ergonomically designed to fit either the male or female torso. Unlike other systems, there's no need to envelop your whole body; the Nicosphere helmet simply covers your head. Excess smoke is then pumped to a small back pack where it can be easily disposed of. Most importantly, the Nicosphere 3000 really works!

If you've seen this before, I'm sorry. And I seriously hope this is a joke.Ã,  ;D

I can't understand how isolating the "smoked" space just into a helmet can help quitting ... I just can think that the user could die by asphixia, in that case, no more smoking, of course...Ã,  :-\

I think it just helps people who want to go out and are not allowed to smoke, smoke. And therefor don't need to quit! Hurray!

no-no. You figured it all wrong. See, if a smoker walks around wearing something so stupid on his head, he'll probably get beaten up all the time and starts to take fact "smoking is bad for health" seriously and maybe even quit... or - spends a lot time in hospital - where smoking is not permitted. Which leads to quitting again.

But what if he uses the helmet at the hospital? Will (s)he get beaten by the nurses?

(S)he can't use helmet in hospital. How'd he connect that hose to his nose that's in movies?

I think I'd take my chances trying to quit cold turkey or with the patch.

See, that wouldn't work anyway...  quitting right off would work better, as opposed to getting my ass beat.  Getting beat up would only frustrate me, and cause me to smoke more.
