No it wouldn't. People smoke even though they know it kills them -- I know this cos I smoke.

What would probably make me give up would be a nice surgeon showing me the inside of my lungs...

I've set a date to give up last week so I'm cutting down anyway, but I don't think a novelty ashtray will really help.

no cos my mind still tells me its only an ashtray
No matter how many adverts and ashtrays or health warnings people will only give up cos they want to.
Just cos people smoke doesnt mean they love their family less or their life its just something that is a habit

end of the day comes down to unrealistic optimism and cognitive dissonance. these are probably the two biggest factors working against people quitting. the method of fear arrousal to get people to quit, is to be fair, a load of bollocks, when the adverts come on tv, smokers are just going to turn them off

For those serious about quiting - read "The Easy way to stop smoking" by Allen Carr. It works.
