As far as smoking in public places goes...when I smoke (which isnt very often...normally when stressed out) if someone ask me politely to move or whatever then I will normally do it...if they have an attitude about it when they do it, well that is another story. to me it is just as easy for someone else to move as it is for me to move...I mean I personally dont like being around stupid and immature people...but that doesnt mean I ask the government to ban stupid and immature people from being in public...I simply try not and get around those people. avoiding people that smoke isnt all that difficult

I'm not familiar with that study, and i'm trying to remember what the surgeon general's report said about it but I don't think I read that part (it's a 200 some page document I believe). Again, aside from what it does to someone's lungs, some people have allergic reactions, and most people get burning eyes and stuch. It drives my eyes insane, for instance.
And stupid and immature people have not been proven to be detrimental to your health, sorry.
And avoiding smoke really isn't all that easy. And say I was somewhere first, and someone came in the area and started smoking, why should I have to leave? I'm not the one doing something to harm other people.
