I have never smoked and I never will. My mom used to smoke when I was very young and I hated it even then. My dad used to smoke a pipe or a cigar and I hated that too. I've never allowed anyone to smoke in my car or house. I'm glad that in California there are strict smoking laws. People who smoke at my work have to go outside. I still have to smell the awful cigarette smell on them though. I'm sure that if second hand smoke is bad for us that it also has to be bad for animals. I wish that the younger generation would never start smoking. I know that this will never happen in my lifetime but maybe some day the world will be free from smoke.
