Messages from cell phones may help smoker to quit smoking...

If that was the result of the research, it would just mean that the person would just be switching into another habit, which is texting. Texting may not be a hazardous as smoking, but it could sure be a cause of a lot of things in your life- ruined relationships, ruined concentration in work and in school, unnecessary spending, being altogether unproductive.

I really am not sure what effect that would be. Although I am pretty sure it is not effective for me since I am a non smoker. But I do not know how this will affect the smoker since there seems to be no connection between smoking and texting.

Maybe they can go do a text message instead of smoking. Or, perhaps they are getting messages about quiting smoking. Who knows. I don't even own a cell phone.
