=Phlum: Smoker's in my experience, will always say , what about this or that? Always looking for something more to offer as prevarication. I am totally surprised pollution has not been used yet. Smoking bans are happening worldwide. It is not just here that the dangers of passive smoking are being, at long last, dealt with.
