Well that's at least a low amount of tobacco, its still sadly to say increasing your chance of cancer.Smokers are fun? This sounds like the anti-anti phillips-morris settlement commercials.
You have to account for people with asthma and allergies. One of my grandfathers never smoked around his wife or the house because of that.
I'm mildly allergic in the sense that I get uncomfortable headaches from second hand smoke. Not to mention that you have to clean everything after entering a pub/bar/restauraunt in a state or city that hasn't outlawed or restricted it yet. There's the other side to the coin, the 80% of people who do not smoke in this country. Not trying to start a tobacco war, but I could never have a partner as a smoker, certainly not as a frequent smoker. Tried that. Kissing was awful, it was like breathing it... anyhow.... as they say , TMI.
