Re: Smoke free buildings

The University of Colorado went smoke free, with the rest of the state's
buildings, some years ago. There was hardly a whimper, although those in
the law school with windows that open onto the grassy areas now complain
of second hand smoke from those using the great outdoors as a smoking lounge.

We only had two or three smokers on the law school staff/faculty when the
change was made. These folks were pretty aware that change was a-coming,
so there was no protest from them. The students had been restricted to
smoking in only the main floor lounge, so the change wasn't so great for
them, either.

By the way, did you notice that the Rockies beat Atlanta last night?
