20 years ago I warned that we were going towards outlawing tobacco while legalizing pot. I was laughed at. Here we are.

That said, I smoked for 33 years. Two months ago I started taking Chantix, a neural blocker for nicotine. What it has done is make me hyper-sensitive to smoke. I can be walking down an aisle in a grocery store and smell somebody two aisles over who just smoked a cigarette. I still get urges, but would consider putting a sleeve of tobacco in my mouth and setting fire to it no more satisfying than literally licking an ashtray. If that’s what I’ve smelled like for over 3 decades, I can’t say’s I blame them for passing this rule.
