Oooh boy. I didn't think *anyone* would comment on that one... It's
strange, because here in Finland we still get to smoke quite freely, in
bars etc. Ofcourse there are the required-by-law no-smoking tables in
restaurants, but otherwise... Don't you Americans have some tighter laws
about public smoking, at least in some parts of the country?
I'll see what I can do. I will put out my cigarette if someone asks me
to in real life, so why wouldn't I do it in the Inertnet also? If I can
find another picture, then why not...

Mark, don't you remember? Glasses and Leica don't mix. Mind you, I'll
gladly take an good piece of meat from a bull, rather than a cigarette.
Nothing beats meat. :)
