Interesting anecdote....but how do you honestly expect to refute the stone cold facts that it was the smoking ban which forced Cafe Di Napoli and the Olive Garden to close shop in downtown Mpls? I can't believe those two spots are included with a straight face. You can couch it by saying they were closed in that timeframe but they dont seem to be related at all. I'm against the ban, but if that list of 40 restaurants is what people are pointing to as restaurants that have closed since the ban, that's irresponsible. Anthony Thompson Standish REMINDERS: 1.
