good points all, Amos.

But I wonder if you have considered that second-hand smoke DOES indeed harm non-smokers, and therefore, this activity can, to some extent, be said to interfere with others' freedoms...

That said, I do think some of the public anti-smoking laws (especially in Boston)are a bit much at times...
