Where there's smoke...

It boggles my mind that in this day and age there so many people who still smoke. I quit smoking when I was in late twenties. Now that I quit, I find the smell of smoke and smokers to be most vile. I don't go to concerts or bars any more, because I can't stand the smell. If I do end up going to a smoky environment, I have to wash my coat and clothes right away when I get home. Smokers have ruined it for the non-smokers.

I don't understand why it would be such a big deal to ban smoking completely from all public places. It is a health hazard and ruins the quality of life for the rest of us.
