Yes. The anti-smoking jihad has morphed from mild complaints about stale air in airplanes 40 years ago to an increasingly hysterical mood among healthists, misfits, cranks, bed-wetters, yupsters of all ages and control freaks seeking someone, anyone, that they perceive as lower in the social pecking order than they. They have turned anti-smoking into a religious crusade bent on injecting a moral element into the simple, harmless to others, vice of using tobacco products. This attempt to inject sin into the debate has created a feeling of righteousness in it's advocates, a feeling that borders on religious mania in many of its hysterical adherents.
