sorry, I couldn't resist.
I agree with all of your stances about the 2nd hand smoke hype, but I can't stand smoke and I am glad that it is out of work places. I remember the days of going to work and coming home stinking of smoke. I grew up with my dad smoking and I couldn't stand it. Nothing like good clean air. I don't agree with the exessive "sin" taxes, nor the government lawsuits. I also don't agree with removing smoking from all bars. After all, that is part of the scene. However, removing smoking from general office space and planes (I think they should provide a small filtered room for smokers on planes) is a blessing. JMO
