Because I realize there haven't been enough smoking threads lately :) This argument just struck me as particularly overwrought.

While waiting for her flight back to Reno on Monday, Charlene Herst ate at a sports bar at McCarran International Airport.

As she ate, the manager of chronic disease control for the Nevada State Health Division took note of the restaurant's customers. None was smoking.

"I was afraid people would smell me on the plane and think that I was this heavy smoker," she recalled. "People need to understand: The smoke is in the walls. It's in the flooring. It remains behind after the smoker has left."
