Could it be our michigan senators enjoys karaoke, use Hoster, and read this forum? My dreams have been answered. You guys aren't going to believe this, but our legislature just passed a workplace smoking ban???huh??? gotta be this forum to thank for this..how else could you explain it??? read this, and watch the video. Now it doesn't cover casinos so you detroit cats don't git yur hopes up. I think this is wonderful. Just passed goes into effect May 2010.......

Public smoking was banned in Alberta 2 years ago, which is when I started singing karaoke. I am severely alergic to tobacco smoke and avoided bars my entire life. Now I go to bars at least twice a week. The short term effect of the ban was a loud outcry by businesses claiming it would hurt their business. The long term effect is that it has had no effect on business. Smokers go outside to smoke, even in horrible weather, and they do not complain. It's always a hi and a smile as I pass them on the way inside. People like me who avoided bars, now do not, which offsets any reduction of business by smokers not going as often or staying as long (if this happens; I don't know). The only downside to business during the switchover was caused by the gvt itself making short-term concessions to the most vocal businesses. As to casinos, there is a native run casino near my house. I went there once to check it out, but have never returned because of the smoke. I frequent others in town where smoking is banned. They are all doing good business.

i played in bars where smoking is allowed, i'm sorry to say that i do smoke, but anyway, some bars here has a very high powered vents, and as long as they dont smoke infront of you , you wont smell like an ashtray when you go home.. but anyway here in so. fla, smoking inside is allowed providing you are only selling a small percent of food, and also bars here have patios where people can smoke,

I ain't never been in a bar or club where smoking is allowed that you can't smell it when you get home. I used to smoke, but couldn't smell it then. They could put a jet engine in now to clear the smoke, i'd still smell it, even if i only thought i could. and i live in so Florida.
