* w w w .thelocal.de/13007/20080711/ Subject pretty much says it all, but note this quote: "Bars and restaurants across the country have been reporting decreased revenues due to the smoking ban" Once again, the reality of smoking bans is that it adversely affects private businesses - but as some aunties here have repeatedly pointed out, they...

Tonight, as I read today's Philadelphia Daily news over dinner at a Wegmans' cafe, I found two items of interest to smokers. First, there was a brief column about how the FDA is reevaluating the method used to test how much nicotine, smokers ingest from different kinds of cigarettes. The current method dates back to the 1930's. The FDA feels its testing...

It is well established that the sense of smell of the typical smoker is diminished. We non-smokers have our own built-in smoke detector because when a fire erupts in our home or office, we can often smell it before a smoke detector alerts us to it. This is not true with nicotine addicts; since their sense of smell is damaged, they depend more on smoke...

Hey nicotine addicts, what do you do about your smoke detectors at home? Doesn't your tobacco spew set off your smoke detectors? The thing is, nicotine addicts would probably be slower to smell a fire then non-smokers because their olfactory sense is diminished, so you need a smoke detecter, but doesn't you set it off when you smoke? good night

Just took a brisk walk down to the shopping area to see for myself if the two liquor stores are open today. They are. One opened at ten, the other at eleven. Both close at six. It's the first time since Prohibition repeal (75 years) that's happened. I wanted to see history made firsthand. There was some grumbling about Sunday being their day of rest...
