[Eric in the Ozarks]

I wouldn't mind sharing the air with smokers in a restaurant if they wouldn't exhale.

So, the world, according to you, should be "according to Eric in the Ozarks!"

Would you accept completely seperate smoking and nonsmoking restaurants? You don't have to smoke at the time to go in the smoking allowed but you do have to NOT smoke at the time to go into the nonsmoking.
If not, we probably wouldn't mind NOT sharing a restaurant with you at all.

Two comments:

1. Having a smoking section in a restaurant is like having a "peeing section" in a public swimming pool.

2. Banning smoking in bars and casinos is like banning fornication in a cathouse.

I don't like hanging around smoke either, but the solution (I think you will agree) is to frequent non-smoking restaurants or build your own restaurant and make it non-smoking.

Reiner put River Phoenix in his movie, Stand By Me, and had him smoke throughout, Phoenix was only 14 years old.
