Well, I do believe Indiana is beginning to see the light....that is the no smoking light.

Muncie, IN just passed an oridance against smoking in public places. Yippeee! Now, please understand, this area is steeped with smokers and smoking tradition. It's truly a way of life here. Rolling Eyes

Also in Marion County (Indianapolis) an oridance goes into effect the first of March banning smoking in public places...like the truckstops, etc.

And our Governor, Mitch Daniels, wants to increase the tobacco tax by l believe 50 cents per pack. Now, here's the sad part....yesterday, as I was in town there was a bumper sticker which read...

"To Hell with the Governor, Long Live Joe" with a picture of a camel beside the slogan...you know "Joe Camel" cigarettes. I thought "how sad"....the addiction's deception.

So, some improvements and looks like alot of education is still needed here!!!

Hugs

HI, Deb,

It sounds like Indiana might be on its way to some good stuff! I went to school there....Butler U. in Indianapolis....and have a soft place in my heart for this state. Four of my best years were spent there! (Unfortunatey, it is the place I had my first cig.....but hey, that was my fault!)

Interesting post! YOu made me a tad homesick for the "good ole days!" Laughing Cool
