Unfortunately for you mrselfdestruct, your polemic is hardly relevant. Or maybe i'm wrong. Maybe the ability to smoke in indoor public places is just as much a necessity as passing gas, agriculture and our current transportation infrastructure.

I was writing in the style known as "asshole libertarian." It was an enourmous exaggeration of reality and was not entirely relevant. On the other hand, almost every draconian law has to start small and work its way up slowly enough that people don't care enough to fight it.

Public trash cans with sand-filled ashtrays on top of them have always seemed like a good idea to me. It's a shame that they're disappearing. I guess it's good for the economy, since they now have to hire a guy to go around and pick up litter in addition to the guy who enpties the trash cans.
