just my 2c, and i don't ever remember getting into this one before. and its been around several times i think...<br /><br />i do understand smokers wanting to continue to live their lives as normal - like eating out, riding subways, in cars, at work, etc. its an old tradition.<br /><br />i would think the advanced filtration idea might solve some complaints at public places too. but probably it should also require walls, or full length partitions, maybe glass, or seethru, whatever. <br /><br />for sure, i've smoked, and still can, on rare occasions- i just hate the way they make me feel later, so i don't do it. maybe once a yr when out at a pub. but the big problem for me, and i'm sure its why total healthnut types put up such a roar- is because no one wants the smoke & fumes coming into their personal space. it burns your eyes, sticks to your hair & clothing, etc.<br /><br />we quit going to a local restaurant due to this, my 4yr old never was exposed to 2nd hand smoke by my family, but the smoking section at eateries is a joke- like a halfwall between 2 rows of seats...<br /><br />if places like restaurants really put some pinkmatter into it, they would at least put up a full wall with doors separating them, and an off-the-shelf air filtration system. jeez how hard is it to figure out?
