ozone! Forgot to tell you. We are losing our Doctor at Pines Health Care and they had Open House today to save goodbye to him and to say hello to the new Doctor.

While sitting in the waiting room (we got there a little early), there on the wall was this poster about all health care facilites AND the hospitals up here will be totally smoke free. Even the lots. (This is not new, but I guess they put it up as a reminder). What really pissed me off: There on the wall was this BIG poster from the Partnership for a Tobacco Free Maine with their HELP line and pushing Big Pharm anti smoking drugs.

So, there we have it. More of our money being spent on BIG POSTERS. God knows where all they have THOSE spread out! They are gearing up in Maine again, Ozone. We have to really keep our eyes out. If you hear of ANYthing happening in southern Maine, Please Please tell me.

Will do. There was a little flurry about the mental health patients last spring, but I haven't heard of any legislation repealing the loss of the mental health patients right to smoke.
Right now the only thing they can do in the hospital is whine at you if you light up in the bathroom or sneak outside for a butt. Or the nurses will have the doctor "talk to you".
