| i grew up in phila and am now in the surrounding areas.. it is true that the enforcement is lax..it stinks.. instead of fines the bars shouldbe forced to pay for my shampoo/ dry cleaning.. i hate the way my clothes smell the morning afte being out in a club or bar.. they banned it in Atlantic City and in some of the clubs it really makes a HUGE difference.. i think it is a great idea.. it is not fair to have a bunch of smokers at a bar and then children sitting 10 feet away at a booth in the same restaurant like at an applebees or something.. i wish philly would be strict about it.

| OK so we went to lunch at Houlihans. We walked in and the girls asked if we wanted to sit in the "dining area or the bar area" so we sat at a high bar table! I was so excited we ordered twice as much food as we could eat and tipped the waiter like 30%.

| We went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast and sat on the old smoking side...I always wondered what it looked like! It was nice to enjoy a meal with no smoke wafting around the room and into the no smoking section. |

| Tn went no smoking Oct 1st. I love the no smoking in restruants. I believe it can have smoking if they only cater to over 21 like in a bar. here is a place that tells of our ban: http://www.tennesseeanytime.org/govo...mokingban.html

| Our city passed the ordianance last year. I think they'll recind it now that the state law will cover it. It is nice. When going to restaurants for the first several weeks, the hosts and hostesses kept asking "smoking or non-smoking" out of habit. It is fun to sit anywhere and the waits are shorter. (Some of the more bitter smokers will say that's because they're refusing to eat out now, but the places are still busy, but seating is more flexible and efficient now.) I'm sorry for those that are addicted and even those bitter about the smoke-free shift in the country. Most would like to quit but can't. So I'm hoping that the inconvenience to them will aid in their move to quit. Hey, it's a New Year - it's a good time to give it a try!
