Spare Us!

Dear LoV,

Even as you write about the smoking habit on Wall Street, you have made it a habit to write great blogs! Anyday, a much more rewarding and friendly habit!! Congrats on being nominated once again for this month's FP of the month.

I never knew that smoking was so rampant on WStreet and in the business sectors. I always thought that America has done great job in discouraging smokers. Coming from Germany which is a virtual tobacco chimney, America to me is almost a haven for non-smokers. When my German friends visit here, they find it extremely restrictive towards smokers!

I still remember the day when there was a smoker and non-smoker seating areas on planes! We have come a long way.

Yet, what do we do when some try to equate smoking with being hip and cool. Sad indeed.

I strongly object to movies that show these macho heroes smoking, sends a wrong message to the young and impressive youth.
