geez, i must be one of the few non-smokers left who doesn't give a damn what other people do. not directly putting down anyone else here, please understand, but i couldn't give a rat's ass whether anyone smokes anywhere at con as long as it's not in my personal room which i am paying for. yeah, my clothes may smell a bit and my hair might reveal that i'd been at a party or sitting next to chris the following day... but we live in a world that got its hands around the whole "soap" technology thing somewhere in the sixth century. nowadays, tide detergent and suave shampoo are available at every corner store for almost no cost.
yeah, i hate smelling like smoke just like most everyone else i know (smokers and non-smokers alike) but it's a very brief inconvenience and it comes right out. personal freedoms shouldn't be trod upon simply because they pose a minor inconvenience to others. (when these laws are debated the politicians speak as though they're fighting a scourge akin to people setting up lawn sprinklers that pump sulfuric acid in the middle of crowded rooms.)
