Re: Smoking on the train platforms.uughh

I finally got the hint, recognised the endless negative progression of the popularity of smokers, was savaged with a vicious plethora of insults by a militant little woman in Yosemite national park for daring to smoke a cigarette in such fresh air and gave up in '07. I figure that after a bit more time it will be about as socially acceptable as public masturbation - at least in the non-Swiss parts of the western world.

As a former smoker I sympathise with the feelings of persecution smokers feel. But really, if they can't take the hint or summon the will-power I would greatly appreciate them at least refraining from striking up on a busy railway platform at some god-foresaken hour of a Monday morning when it is still dark and minus temperatures. Just not a healthy way for anyone to start the day.
