>>Nobody at the top ever stops to consider that it was the initial ban that was the bad idea in the first place.

I disagree. Educated people don't smoke, and don't enjoy smelling it on their clothes after leaving work, incurring higher cleaning bills, etc. Most companies like employing smart, educated people, so no smoking in the office isn't unreasonable.

Our private consulting engineering firm had a no-smoking policy 15+ years ago. And we weren't a bunch of carrot eating leftist tree-huggers; more like a bunch of Reaganite gun-owners in the South.

So, your saying that all of us in here are UNEDUCATED BOOBS? Is that what your saying?

Guess what! Your an IDIOT!

This is the biggest lie of all, I know plenty of educated people who do smoke, my doctor just quit a couple of years ago.......... by the way, many doctors still smoke.

"FreedomPoster" eh? The above response reeks of forceful liberal socialism that has nothing to do with freedom or common sense. BTW John Adams and alot of the other founding fathers enjoyed a pipe once in a while too...I wouldnt call them uneducated.

I beg your pardon. Smokers cross all boundaries and a great many educated people smoke. A no-smoking policy set by the owner of a business is fine with me, but it's not government's business and it certainly isn't the business of a bunch of unelected busybodies.

Any day you wanna compare edumacation, let me know.
