One for the Non-Smokers

With just four days until a no-smoking ban blankets Chicago, France and parts of Germany, articles are starting to hit the media about the impact the new rules and regulations have on cultural affairs. What I find ironic is a quote by one smoker from France. "Great idea," smoker Daniel Marierouyer, 45, said sarcastically at Le Fumoir. "I love it when things get imposed on us -- Buckle your seat beat, don't smoke, you need to be healthy, you're too fat." Funny how he doesn't see his smoking as imposing his habit on those around him.
