Before our recent smoking ban in all bars that serve food except in the casinos (guess which big business was behind that one), there were many smoke free (voluntary) restaurants that never seemed to be lacking customers.

I have to dissagree here Dog, Non-smokers tend to inflict their selfrighteous opinons on smokers.

No you misunderstand I am not for legilateing it just saying I see the reasoning. As far as selfrighteous opinions don't like it don't rear it or listen to it but it has done no physical hard while as the second hand smake may have. As a nonsmoker they could ban it in the whole country as far as I'm concerned same for drinking. But I don't think that is what should be. I like the idea of nonsmoking resuraunts. Having a smoking section in a resturaunt is like having a peeing section in a public pool and does about as much good.

The answer is obvious, don't go into pools with peeing sections.

They already have entirely separate peeing pools, they're call "kiddie pools". If pee-ers want to pee in public pools, they should be restricted to those pools as the other patrons in the pool wouldn't mind.

On the other hand, if you knowingly enter a peeing pool, does it make sense to demand it become a non peeing pool just because you want to enter it?

The key phrase is "knowingly enter a peeing pool". That's why I think there should be separate pools for pee-ers. I wouldn't enter a kiddie pool and demand they stop peeing. I'm all for separate pools - not just peeing sections.

Cell phones is another one!! I believe unless it's some kind of emergency like maybe you kid or wife is gonna have a baby any sec. or something. Cell phones should be shut off at the door of a resturaunt or put on vibrate and if it does vibrate leave the area to answer.Wendy and I both personally do that.Common curtosy.
