I am OK with the reasoning, since the part that is often not mentioned, is that the bar and|or restaurant is free to continue to allow smoking as long as that is clearly stated up front to both customers and employees. At least that is the rule here in California. All the law really changed was that the default state of bars and restaurants is non-smoking with them being free to change it to smoking if they so choose, not the other way around. And the recognition that there is really no such thing as a non-smoking section in any normal establishment that allowed smoking in some other part. Smoke not really caring if there is a banister or a few tables between one space and the other. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:283556 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
