As for the localized issue, Yorick, yes, NYC has different issues than a lot of places. I'd submit to you, however, that since I live and work smack dab in downtown Chicago, the smoking ban would be a very similar situation here. |

I really haven't read all of the posts in this thread. I have read the first half of the first thread, but then I just got a bit lazy. Anyway, I hope people don't mind I just go back to the begining and tell my opinion. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I'm not a smoker, and I really can't stand smoke. It makes me sick, makes my eyes hurt, and all of that just after being around smoke for a couple of minutes. Both of my parents smoked when I was little, so I was used to it then, but after years of being in an environment without cigarettes, smoking really makes me feel sick. But what I really really hate about cigarettes is that it makes my hair and my clothes stink! [img]tongue.gif[/img] Only after a couple of minutes in the smoke my hair stinks so much... And if I don't have time to wash my hair, when I wake up in the morning, the whole bed stinks! [img]tongue.gif[/img] Anyway, because of that I don't go to bars or pubs where they smoke. If they have a non-smoking section, which is really a non-smoking section, that means, that the smokers are in the other room, then I go there. Otherwise I don't. [img]smile.gif[/img] So a non-smoking law would be good for me, and also for my other non-smoking friends. But I think they'll put it here soon anyway... So, as long as there are smokers in a restaurant or a bar, I will try to avoid it. Though I have one question for smokers. [img]smile.gif[/img] Why don't you use snuff instead? [img]tongue.gif[/img] It's just as bad for you, just as disgusting, but it doesn't hurt other people. Hehe. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
