Myself.. I'm extremely sensitive to smoke of any kind. One breath tightens my lungs up pretty bad - any major irritation to my lungs starts my asthma up. Even sitting in traffic at a light somewhere with my A/C on and windows closed, I've smelled cig smoke from the guy 2 and 3 cars behind with his cig out the window (what is that btw.. ..so the smoke doesn't get in the car??!!).
The other thing smokers find it hard to believe is that everything in their body smells like cigs. I mean everything.. only once did I blow a guy who smoked. But if someone else wants to ....more power to them. I would guess a woman who smoked pussy would taste like cigs too.
Anyway.. it sounds more and more like this country is going to have stricter policies about places to smoke. Wonder when/if it's against the law? They write tickets for smoking where you're not supposed to?

Yep, and the fines vary. This was done partially in Boulder, CO and in other places. I'm waiting for the 'you cannot drive here' in the middle of the city due to car exhaust....never happen, at least to a broad degree, but still.
If someone asks me to move or put out my smoke because it bothers them, I usually do it. Except if I'm at an outside patio at a resturaunt or bar. Your're an idiot to even think of asking me to put it out there.
