Just out of curiosity, how has business been since the ban? Up? Down? About the same?

Not trying to start a whole debate or anything my curiosity is just getting to me.

If you took a poll at any hospital and asked them to rate the service on their different floors the ER would almost always come up last. ER's have no choice but to take the most serious patients as they come in so the waiting time for "minor" things is greater. Plus, people are typically in a panic when they enter an ER. They think that their injury is the most important injury and when they don't get their demands met, they view it as bad service. Normally it is just bad timing.

The rule of thumb is unless you actually know the person, never wire out money, especially if they are paying for a service. You can not get it back and it is very hard to trace.

This is just another form of the Nigerian scam.

you said..."HOWEVER, cigarette butts all over the streets are the RESULT of the ban itself. Were it not for the ban on smoking, smokers would put their butts where they always have in the past, in ashtrays that used to be provided inside the establishments where people smoked. Now the entire city is an ashtray thanks to the ban. "

So because one law was put in place it is ok for them to break another?? The result of the ban is that smokers are not allowed inside. They are responsible for where they put their cigarette butts. They don't have to use the sidewalks or street and doing so is littering and illegal.

To all the people who are posting about the cigarette butts....you do realize that it is the people who are smoking and throwing their butts on the ground that are littering, don't you? All who voted in favor of this ban are not to blame for the smokers littering. It is a completely different subject.

Matt and Steve--

Congratulations on a well fought debate. You may have been on the losing side but you both gave it your all. I think this ordinance ended where it should have....the voters hands and I thank you both for getting it to that point.
