smoke-free bingo

.

Some towns are not so fortunate.

My city became smoke free several years ago. They included the bingo parlor in this initially, but the business dropped significantly. I loved it however.... made all the difference in the world. Somehow, the owners of the bingo place where able to establish it as some sort of entity that was able to bypass the smoke free law and smoking resumed... thus business increased which ultimately was good for the highschool fundraising as well.

I don't know what they do now as I've been out of the highschool scene for a while, but it was so much nicer to not have to breathe in all that smoke for hours.

Florida has been smoke free for about 6 years. Don't realize how nice it is until I walk into a restaurant in another state that still has smoking. Even tho I sit in the "non-smoking section" the smoke is still present in the room and stays with my clothes.

Paris and Brussels have both been officially "smoke-free-indoors" for several years now and, except for an ocaissional crusty old man, it seems to work 98% of the time.

The worst thing about Frenchie J. Citizen-smoker is that he believes standing directly in the doorway, with just his hand outside the door, constitutes "smoking outside". (This is true for both public and service entrances.)

The point: Any pilot or mechanic familiar with bernoulli/venturi effects will understand the inevitable, repetitive in-rush of doorway smoke.

In addition, most larger urban department stores now have long lines of power-puffing "shoppers" along the external facades originally intended for window-shoppers.

The smoker's sidewalks have essentially become giant ashtrays and are nearly impassible due to crowd-pack and smoke.

Well there is a way to combat the choking effects of Mr. Bernoulli and Robert Venturi along with their pilot and mechanic friends...
