There is plenty of evidence that second hand smoke is dangerous. Have you been hiding under a rock????

HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING UNDER A ROCK????

Federal Court Rules Against EPA on Secondhand Smoke

I think any anti who tries to dismiss the findings of the U.S. Department of Energy labs at Oak Ridge, should be confronted with the question: "Are you saying that DOE researchers committed scientific fraud and that their findings on ETS exposure are untrue?"

You are just in denial, read the article, the science is there.

I read the article, no science is presented. Have you read the other scientific studies which were previously cite in this thread?

You dont have any scientific evidence jesus crist lived but you know he did right?

Please leave the lord out of this. Particularly since you can't spell his name or capitalize it. And since you are wrong about the evidence that he existed, it is one of the most documented lives in history.

But you try to change the topic. The topic is property rights and the junk science which is used to try to usurp them.

"...government interference just causes further problems."

Exactly. When will people learn?

Not really. BTW, you misspelled 'reconsider.'

Thanks for the correction.

Now it should be pointed out that your logic is even more faulty than my spelling skills.

sounds sensible to me. Too bad they're ruining their own fresh air with smoke. I know it's a tough habit to quit though. I won't be a Nazi about it. I'm still hoping my dad will quit his 40+ year habit. He's only 59 and I want him around to see some more grandkids.

Even without a picture on your profile, it's obvious that you are a very small man that has to resort to personal attacks when you lose arguments. Now apologize and be polite or go away.

But I think making them smoke outside is the right decision.

But the problem is we've passed that point too. Smoking outside (even in designated areas) is also under attack by the anti-nico nazis.

Question:do you think there should be a finite amount of smoke breaks a worker should be allowed? during a typical 8-hour workday?

should be no different than breaks for any other worker doing anything else - like going for another cup of coffee....

Because breaking wind has not been found to cause harm to anyone. I agree it is offensive, but not harmful like second hand smoke.

This person is brain dead. Too much wacky weed, I think.

Never cared much for FDR.

I can't stand the thought of the SOB or his bucktoothed bride, but he was a smoker and nobody could call him stupid.

Thank God. I sure hate to get nasty in here. But that's uncalled for.

Maybe he is a 14-year-old on daddy's computer.
