And here I thought it was about a Cruise Line that was giving away
"Free Smokes".
All in all, remember it is only about bottom-line and nothing else.
It makes their life simpler to ban smoking as it makes the ship easier
to clean.

Always all sorts of good reasons to ban things, well accept logic &
reason that is. It was easy for the Germans to just start with one
thing, and look how that got out of hand.

The next year, I looked at the sign more closely. It was outside the
A. W. Jones Lumber Company again with the "Plastic and Smoke Free"
sign. When I looked at it with binoculars, underneath it said " No
plastic and no cigarettes allowed on this property. Our jobs depend
on it."

Having worked some lumber yard and/or lumber mill fires in my yout', I
can certainly understand how their jobs would depend on that. The
relationship with plastics is what fascinates me.

....exactly, smokers are in the minority
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/itn/2007082...dba1618_1.html
The ban on smoking in pubs, clubs and offices appears to have had an
impact on cigarette sales, new figures have revealed.
Consumer research company AC Nielsen says sales are down nearly 7 per
cent.
Despite the fall it still means smokers bought over three billion
cigarettes during July.
It is expected that manufacturers will increase prices to keep profits
on track.
The smoking ban was introduced in England and Wales on July 1.
The fall in July follows the 6 to 8 per cent declines in cigarettes
seen after smoking bans were imposed in Ireland in 2004 and in
Scotland last spring.

Re: Smoke-free cruising
Hurray for shreveport! I am sick and tired looking at Young Mens
underwear because their pants are falling down their butt. It is just
not a good thing... We have our Liberties but then we abuse many
liberties.. SO why don't they just walk around in their Underwear?
lets all walk around in our underwear! Never understood why someone
would want those Big old shorts isnt it uncomfy to have them falling
down like that?
Its not just about how you want to wear your clothes though its about
being semi decent.
George I am laughing though.... shame we need a law on the books for
this!

Re: Smoke-free cruising
I don't care for that look either, but as long as their "naughty bits" are
covered, why should it be against the law. Just a waste of lawmaker's and
potentially policemen's time.
