the world wide crackdown on smoking, tobacco i mean... not nessicarily the same everywhere, but more and more 'freedoms' associated with smoking (tobacco) have just recently been revoked.... in amercia, and in england.. not sure of anywhere else yet (or if there is) think it means anything? personally, i'm all for getting people to stop, but taking away being able to smoke in public, even outside, just isn't right... it's taking away from peoples rights and liberties i feel.... personally i hope everyone does and can quit smoking (although i so realize that's not happening) but when it starts being forced on people, it becomes a problem...
