Lady, your reactions are psychosomatic. Studies have proven, to the dismay of the Antis, that smoking does not affect asma. React however you please, if you didn't like the smoke, you shouldn't have gone to the Pizza place. Smokers don't have to be the only ones inconvenienced by issues special interest groups initiated. Give me a break, smoke doesn't smell that strong. If you want to wash your clothes and take a shower, good for you, but don't blame it on smoke.

If you are a smoker, I'm not sure your views are unbiased. As for the "smell" of smoke, which you seem to think is non-existent. When I used to come back home after a visit to my mother's (a smoker), my husband would always comment "I see you've been to your mom's house - I can smell the smoke." I always made sure I would wear my old clothes over there and stuff that didn't need to be dry-cleaned. As for you not being able to smell, perhaps you have serious problems with your olfactory senses. I have met many people who cannot smell strong odors. I used to work in a large research laboratory. About two years ago there was an incident with an experiment where two chemicals reacted and produced a very noxious and horrible odor and they evacuated the building. There were people who claimed they couldn't "smell a thing." Amazing. I guess you're like those people. It's your loss. As for trying to get personal with insults about my own personal smell, try and stick on the topic.
