is smoking allowed?

to the other non-smokers here: did you know before the discussion here that this law would ban smoking in private clubs? I didn't, and, while I'm all like in regards to banning public smoking in almost all circumstances, I find the ban on smoking in private clubs fairly offensive. I would support a petition drive to repeal/amend that section of the law, and I'm curious if any other non-smokers feel the same way.

i'm posting this pic in Redhead Appreciation as well. Only because it's absolutely necesary.

for those opposed to the ban: you've aired a number of points where you take issue with various provisions of the law. what comes next? you'd be better off contacting your local state rep to modify the law to allow private clubs an exemption, or helping mount a petition drive to overturn it. at the very least, some DGN smokers-only house parties should be on tap.

hey, lexmachine - did you ever see the io9 item on your photos? I started a thread on it a while back; here's a link to the thread: http://www.detroitgothic.net/index.php?showtopic=30817 love the new pics, especially that 1st one. kinda reminiscent of Sergio Leone.

I won't pretend to have read the final version that the Governor signed. is there any provision for a "private club" designation/exemption in it?

to echo Zima's question, is there going to be a week #2?

a couple of thoughts: frpm what i've read, everywhere in America that smoking bans have been enacted (and also in Ireland and France), the pattern has been the same: bars and restaurants suffer a hit in business for 2 to 3 months. after that, for every 3 customers that they lose, said establishments pick up 4 new ones. on a purely selfish level :

safe to say i missed by a mile, lol!
