Smoker's Rights ?
I am the OP on this thread. Reading over the responses, I guess I should qualify a couple of things. Perhaps I should not have used the term "rights" in my original post, but by the term I did not mean a "right" as in The BIll Of Rights, I just meant a right to go unmolested as you are going...- biggdonn

TROOST ?
greeneyes- what may have happened is that P and C matched the modern Troost, because what they sent me was not only nothing like the old one, but was pretty bad in general.- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
Olkofri- I need to get that book! THAT is the issue with me, not so much that I can't smoke a pipe in a bar any longer. I guess we could get off on a lot of tangents, but I have yet to hear or see anything preventing fat people from buying and consuming enormous amounts of junk food. There are...- biggdonn

TROOST ?
3rdguy: THANKS! I have lots of people who go to Europe (sometimes including the Netherlands), frequently. I will have them look into it !- biggdonn

TROOST ?
Unfortunately, the P and C match version is nothing remotely like TROOST was. I mean it does not look, taste, or smell like it. I kind of wonder if they sent me the wrong thing, as I don't see how anyone could even begin to confuse what they sent with the real thing.- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
warren- for what it is worth, I have seen a warning about grill smoke from charcoal briquettes, as being a potential cause of respiratory disorders, also. But it was nothing remotely like the assault on tobacco.- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
autumnfog- I agree. I have only seen one article (though I am sure there are more), addressing the negative effects of marijuana smoke in terms of potential lung damage, etc. And I certainly know potheads who smoke more of their weed, and inhale it deeply, than most tobacco smokers.- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
mso489- Glad you mentioned the general air pollution thing. When I used to be in London a lot, for up to a month at a time, I would come in from walking around and also using the tube (London Underground) for a day, and my shoes would be covered in black dust and also I would need to blow the...- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
Yep, I am not a big fan of the vegans, either. I have no problem with them wanting to only eat a limited diet, but a lot of them want to also restrict what I can eat, and that is where I have a problem with them.- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
HOLY CRAP!! I had not heard about the "3rd hand smoke" BS !! Utterly ridiculous. I have a bit of age on me. I might at some point try to decide on a couple of blends I like and try to stock up for life, before they manage their total ban.- biggdonn

TROOST ?
Does anyone know if there is a tobacco which is really like TROOST Dutch Cavendish was ? At least one mail order provider sells what they call a copy of it, but it actually is nothing like it. Related to that- are there European sellers who ship to the U.S.? Maybe some tabac still availble in...- biggdonn

Smoker's Rights ?
I am new here, so I apologize if a couple of questions I plan to ask are repetition. First one: are there any groups for smoker's rights? I know the second hand smoke thing is already a losing battle and the idea of getting back to being able to smoke in restaurants, etc. is probably a lost...- biggdonn
