I smoke, and I find ugly people at sessions offensive. If I agree to not smoke, could I have all the ugly people removed?

They don't need teaching, Greg. They are fluent by the time they reach secondary school!

What are the chances if you are the first hand smoker. Heck, I might have to take up smoking for health reasons...

Right, Gregster?

Where does any session permit players to smoke? Smokers should just give up their instrument,take a break once in a while and go outside for pete's sake. that's simple courtesy and no one could be offended by that being part of a session's structure.

Could they?

Were you teaching them recreational farting? Is this a conventional school subject? It is some years since I went to school, and perhaps curricula have changed since my day.

Spending an hour teaching a group of 14 year old boys (recreational farting de rigeur) has never affected me in the same way as a similar time spent in a room with only a small number of smokers.

"Won't physically harm you", Stigweard? We've only got your word for that. Can you cite any reputable medical research?

According to this story at the BBC, passive smoking increases the rosk of heart disease 50-60%.

Not nice if you're a non-smoker in a session. Would smokers object to me farting in their faces (which is also rude and unpleasant, but won't physically harm you)?.
