I certainly recognize that, while the jury is still out on the health effects of second-hand smoke, it is a nuisance to those who don't like it.

That's what I said. Truncating the sentence and taking part of it out of context changes the intended statement. As to "delusion", I was referring to publicized claims of deaths from second-hand smoke inhalation, which indeed have not been proven.

I've been smoking for 30 years, and quitting for 15. It's hard, but I don't expect any sympathy.

And I'm sorry for committing the sin of thread creep. This is the second time in as many days I've been chastised for going off-topic -- I didn't realize that's such a big no-no!
