Yes, I hate tobacco, and the people that pollute my air, my clothing,
my body, my hair and my lungs with their stenchful (new word) cancer
causing fumes.  I see no reason to like the situation, and I'm 
obviously not alone.

As for the relative merits of smoking... there aren't any.  There's
nothing to discuss.  If you want to pollute your body and your home
that's certainly your right, but it's my right to leave a restaraunt
without having to run home to take a shower because I stink from
your exhalations.  If you can figure out how to keep your smoke
completely and utterly away from me, fine.  Until then, you're
invading my space and I'm going to make as big a stink about it
as smokers do.
