The same technology? You want to mandate restaurants to have a glassed

If they did, would you be happy? I thought not.
They have even offered to have two separate buildings, with the same
food and the same ambiance ... nope. not good enough.
Self absorbed non smokers demand access to both buildings because they
think they are missing something. Yes they are ... the fun people.

I was just at a party in a restaurant.
After eating we smokers all went outside for a smoke.
Some non-smokers tagged along to avoid boredom.
Left about 2/3 of the party sitting there twiddling their thumbs.
They sat in dumb silence until we got back.
Then the party resumed.
Anti-smokers are often a sad lot.
Walk around all their lives with a stick up their ass just to live a few
more years of their uptight misery.
Pretty sad. Some are okay. They usually do other drugs.

My argument all along. A longer life expectancy is the reward for a
dull, very dull life.

Gotta love the rationalizations of the simple-minded.

I watched my great-grandmother sit in a chair in my grandmother's living
room for 15 years. She watched TV, ate and slept. I don't think she was
doing much more five years before we moved back east. So, for 20 years
she watched TV all day long and didn't do much else. Is that how you
want to spend your years from 80 to 100?

There's no reason to believe your familial experience is *the* pattern
for all older people. I know a few guys well into their 80's who are
actively involved in intellectually complicated "mover and shaker" tasks
that would be beyond the abilities of many half their age. Neither of
them are "smokers." I had a relative who died at 99 after a long,
healthy, active life, and she was sharp as a tack until the very end.

Hey, it's perfectly ok with me if you prefer to die young.
