I used to believe that nicotine was very good and helped you stop smoking, because of those nicotine patches. Then in 5th grade, a DARE officer came in and asked if anyone knew what nicotine was. Well, nobody had ever heard of it before, so I thought I was little miss smarty pants and proudly explained that nicotine was something that made you stop smoking. I was embarrassed when the officer told me the truth. :(
