Uhhh.... I think I'll just pass on that "post mortum Nobel Prize," thank-you-very-much. The alter of science will have to find another saint (or victim... depending). By the way, JP... I didn't see any translations of "cold turkey" posted here so just in case no one's replied to ya about that, just picture a 3 pack-a-day smoker stopping suddenly. THAT is "cold turkey." Stopping suddenly on one's own without any help.
