I also don't feel that I must be obliged to hold my breath every time I enter or exit a building where there is a pathetic bunch of nicotine addicted fiends bundled around the entrance sucking on cigarettes.
Dunno. When I lived in an apartment, I didn't seem to smell the smoke from others much. One exception to that was when the person rented the apartment above and "sub-rented" it for cash to a bunch of other people (maintenance guy said 10 at any time before they finally kicked them out) we could smell some smoke.

THAT part, I have a little trouble with. In an enclosed space, fair enough. In open air, I have a hard time telling someone they can't smoke regardless of how I feel about smoking personally.
