I will stay there. In fact, I stay exclusively @ Marriott hotels. It's rare, but there have been times where a smoker is in the elevator while lit up which stinks the whole thing up. This will make the hotel chain that I stay at 100% smoke free air.

While I support smokers' rights, I have greater support for private industry making the decisions they choose to implement for their business.

Marriott will continue to get 100% of my business when I travel for work (125 nights in Marriott in 2005 and on track for 110 nights this year).

That's the way it should be, without special interest blackmail, government interference, and purely an economic choice by the owners.

The extortion by special interests and the support of Liberal Activist judges and flawed science to support it is where the problem begins. Indoctrination into joining the majority by mis-education and emotional appeal is where the line is crossed, clearly.

If it's YOUR business, you decide FREELY what policy you will implement, and focus on your bottom-line. However, implementation of trendy laws to accommodate political-correctness has cast a pall over even this issue.
