I think I'm smoking counterfeit cigarettes

our sometimes-bassist is an ex-three pack a day smoker having been on the road with one band or another since the age of 14. He said something kind of illuminating the other day. When someone comes up to you and asks for a cigarette, observe their reaction. They're obviously jonesing, but as soon as you say "yah, I have one" their eyes light up and they are immediately calmer. Just knowing they were going to have one answered their fix, not the actual smoking itself. It might not be totally accurate, but I see his point.
