Agree ............ it was not that many years ago that smoking everywhere was socially accepted as the norm. Smokers were driven out of the interior of restaurants and bars onto outside areas. Now the non-smokers want to sit where the smokers sit. You cannot have it both ways.
You are never going to make smokers quit by passing laws, the only way smokers quit is because they finally get the message that they are shortening their lives and they suddenly find out they want to live.
For the record we were heavy smokers and I now hate to smell smoke anywhere around me, but I still feel that you cannot legislate people to stop smoking. If we are somewhere where we can smell smoke, we get up and leave. I suppose we could build a penal colony on the moon and send them all up there
