LETTER: It's all about smoke 

In reply to Jim McCoy, who rebutted Keith Duryea's no-smoking plea:

I believe McCoy has the right to fill his lungs with tar and nicotine anytime he chooses to smoke in his own home or yard in the company of enabling and supportive family and friends. His home, his clothes, his body, his hair, his furniture, his pets should all be drenched in the stench of cigar, cigarette or pipe smoke day in and day out should he so choose. . . .

McCoy should definitely have his smoke-filled rooms, but I should definitely have my smoke-free environment.

And did I say that some of my favorite people smoke? It's not about people. It's about smoke.
