"Even when I did smoke, I was keenly aware of the rights of others to breathe unfouled air."

I wasn't--because I was extremely addicted and could not see past that. However, I still advocate the right of smokers to smoke in public places such as designated restaurants and the rights of proprietors to make their facility smoking, non smoking, or mixed. I can't get steak in a chinese restaurant just because I want it so I don't see why restaurants wanting to market the smoking crowd should be forced to lose potential customers. Supply and demand should operate.

As I said, I consider it a stupid habit to suck filth into your lungs, but I "enjoyed" it at one time and many still do.
