The simple fact that the majority of posters to this group would like to see some form of regulation over smoking in ENCLOSED PUBLIC PLACES does not automatically make them narrow minded. Many of us, myself included, agree with Tim in that laws should not be created lightly. Unlike Mr. Holt and Tim, some of us have DECIDED after many years of tolerating rude smokers that we prefer to have some recourse to insure that we may enjoy a $30 meal that we may be in the middle of when the person behind you lights up. Not everyone who disagrees with you on this or any other issue are necessarily narrow minded or stupid! Dave Burris ihlpf!burris BTL - Naperville
