Let's extend this to little old ladies that are so heavily perfumed your eyes burn in their presence and you can literally "taste it" hours after they leave..

At least my cigarette smoke dissipates after awhile (in your hair and clothes most likely). As a smoker, I really should not be able to smell it, but I do.

You guys do such a good job on defending rights and freedoms, that I normally don't chime in on these smoking threads. I posted this one, so I had to make some replys. I do read them all thou. We take a lot of hits as smokers. It's nice to see that there are FReepers who do not smoke, still defend freedoms.

I have yet to see on the gun related threads, people calling for more "gun control"

It never ceases to amaze me how the anti-smoker crusaders always seem to know better than us low-life smokers what we can or can not smell and/or taste.

I can't tell you how many times I have been called a liar by one of them when I claim I have a problem with certain odors or tastes. In fact I've actually been told by several of them that if I didn't smoke the smell/taste wouldn't bother me.

Circular logic at it's best. If I didn't smoke I could smell and taste, but it is because I smoke that I smell and/or taste things in a paricular way.

Sure makes a lot of sense to me.
