I'm in Ireland right now and a bar that I frequented in the past that was "a jumpin' joint" before the smoking ban here now opens at 12:30 for lunch and closes again at 3:30. PM that is. Not AM. In Ireland for cryin' out loud!

The business owner decides. Just the way it should be.
And the public has the right to decide which establishment to support.

Unbelieveable!  People will never learn, will they?  The private owners seem to think that it will never happen to them, and when it does, they put their faith in the anti's lies that "this will HELP their business, not hurt it."  Well when a business loses 25-30% if not more of their revenue, it has GOT to hurt!

That's the reason I will never visit Ireland again.
