Ginny,

Nice to hear from you. I wish I could respond in like fashion, but uinfortunately I'm operating on a miniscule amount of sleep, and must head to bed shortly.

Myself, I've actually never smoked. Never even tried. Personally, I find the habit sickening. But I support the right of people to do so. .. and I can't stand the hypocrisy of some citizens and the government. . . the people who attempt to pawn off their decisions, and their difficulties on someone else. And the government, who double-dips into the pot through taxes and lawsuits, doing whatever they can to make a buck at the expense of industry.

I'm told that in some areas of California where there is a smoking ordinance. . .a cigar bar cannot even be opened up. Not even an establishment expressly INTENDED for smoking!!! This is purely ludicrous.

I look forward to discussing these issues more with you in the future, Ginny. . . but for now, its bed time!

Patrick
