They done the same thing here in New Zealand about 2yrs ago and it works, no smoking in bars clubs, some smaller pubs in the country towns shut down tho as 99% of its publicans smoked so refused to drink their they would buy there alcohol and head home. The smart ones built an open top (no ceiling) smokers bar. Im a smoker but i think no smoking rule is a good thing. Now the govenment is pushing for a Full banning on smokes in the country within 5yrs, if the law passes it will mean tobbacco cannot be sold in NZ.

Im not to worried in fact im hoping this will happen.

I appeal to those of you who are still young and not addicted enough to quit, to think about your potential future as a parent, raising the children who will look up to you as an example.

Brake the chain of smoking while you can. Generations of your future descendants will be grateful you did.

Thank you for stopping to smoke.

Every cigarette is doing you damage.

I live in Vegas, where there is a smoking ban, and noone listens. Hell, some places even hang banners out fron tthat say "Come on in and smoke". They give you plastic cups to ash in at bars so they dont have to keep ash trays on the tables, in case Johnny Law comes in. Its a joke....

But, after all. If you can smoke anywhere, it should be Las Vegas.
