Interesting move as Breckenridge recently legalized marijuana…

It's been that way in Chicago for years. Good thing, too. It was always an annoying thing for a theatre fan, and non-smoker, to enjoy a show once they light-up. (cough cough cough cough).

The smokers will get used to it. :-)

On 1st July 2007 (when the UK smoking ban came into effect), I almost took up smoking on principle…

Not such a bad thing. My wife and I were talking about the series Mad Men, and both of us were amazed at how almost every character is a chain smoker, and every scene is filmed in a cloud of smoke. I’m old enough to have been alive in the ´50′s and I remember how much people smoked, but I don’t remember it being that bad. Surely they can make their point without all the smoke.

But that’s just the point. How do you show how it was back then without smoking, when you’re portraying a world where nearly everyone smoked?

I like you Simon Dillon.

Can I just say that diesel fumes are far more harmful - so why are we not up in arms about that? Oh yeah, it's about the money and control.

Is there another planet I can move to???
