Perhaps as a smoker you don't notice it as much.Quote:

What I DO experience firsthand is the totally unsolicited advice from strangers who feel compelled to lecture me on the evils of smoking and what I should do to improve myself.
I am obligated ( nay, forced) to put up with this from my mother, but from strangers....no
There are 2 sides to the arguement "why should i not smoke when i am out"... the smoker has a choice...the passive smoker doesn't, so why should the non smoker give up their social life because they don't want to smoke?
You as a considerate smoker may do everything in your power to be considerate, but you can't control where the smoke ends up once it's left you.
And make gay wolf sex mandatory.Quote:

I hate to disillusion you Hobbes. But I have this strange feeling that those 'wolves' are not real. There is a possibility that they have had human bodies transplanted on them by the use of Photoshop.:(Quote:

This is a great idea, cos then they can tax it, and fill the hole that less tobacco use will create... :DQuote:

I think they should ban chewing gum while they are at it. Someone is going to bring out, if not already, tobacco flavoured chewing gum. As if the streets and seats of cinemas, trains and buses are not enough of a mess with the stuff already.:ph34r:

They've already banned smoking in most public buildings here. There was no great upcry about it, since the smokers can go outside if they want. It's not just for the health of the general public, but for the health of the people who have to work eight hours in a pub. Even if they didn't smoke, they would be subjected to breathing it in each day.
