Read up on dioxin, it does something to make nicotine receptors a bit more sensitive.

recent studies show that autism can predispose to all forms of substance abuse. It used to be believed that autism made people generally more law abiding and prone to follow "rules". It is being proved that we struggle with stopping habit forming drugs of all sorts when we do take them up.
