Well, i guess i haven't really seen a strategy for what you describe beyond "letting the market handle it". The market has been handling it for a long time and the ratio of smoking to nonsmoking establishments, especially bars, was huge. It's not like the bans are permanent. I'm sure if you were to come up with a strategy that everyone can agree on and organized your efforts you could modify the bans.

Also, you can go outside to smoke now, but if the majority has their way you may eventually have to go to the next city, county or state.

Sez you. I don't subscribe to the slippery slope in this situation. If it does happen, though, that sucks for you if you smoke. As a smoker myself, i'd probably just quit.
