If you smoked for 30 years then you smoked prior to the ETS insanity.

You lit them when you lit them and no one cared---you were not being thoughtful,it just wasn't an issue.

"LOL! yeah there's nothing like smoke to enhance one's "quality of life"..."




Quality of life is subjective,one man's quality may be another man's misery.

You have been utterly brain washed. Sad!

I wasn't aware of any business or private property that has banned the consumption of fast food.

Thirty? Heck, TWENTY!

Yep. And if someone asked you not to smoke (which was RARE), you didn't as a courtesy. It's just how it was.
Funny that so few remember how it used to be.

In Arkansas, people can't even smoke in their own cars if it is parked on hospital property. Everyone has to go across the street to the cemetary now.

The last, "Historical Record," I have in my memory was from the movie Exorcist III released in 1990.

Father Dyer lighting one up in his hospital room...

Lt. William 'Bill' Kinderman -"Ya know those things'll kill ya."
Father Joseph Kevin Dyer -"They're quiet."
Lt. William 'Bill' Kinderman -"Mmmmm."

Give it time.  That will pass.

Maine started that no smoking on hospital grounds a few years ago.  Within the past year when I go go over there, I see visitors stepping out side the door to smoke, and I even saw the emt's smoking before they got in their rig.  No one said one word!

But for now, the fumes are dispersed into the atnmosphere

How do you explain then, the people who complain about people smoking OUTSIDE a building?

Ever eat fast food? You're next.

And I can't wait for some of these people to get their comuppance. I doubt they will get much sympathy when they start complaining about being denied their BigMac. Just imagine a scale at the door of the eatery and a person has to step up and be weighed first, then if they top a certain weight, they are handed a lowfat menu. "But I want a steak!" Tough. Take it up with the gubmint. LOL
