Now even Argentina is falling under the spell of-- blame everything on smoking. There are lots of things in life that are not good for one and impact others one way or another.

I've had Colon Cancer 4 years ago and two malignant tumors in my liver removed 2 weeks ago.. Today I found out that I only have 48% of my lung capacity due to smoking that started when I was 15 years old. I'm 66 now But no Lung Cancer. Yet! And I have not smoked in 16 years.I'M FOR ANYTHING THAT STOPS SMOKING ANYWHERE. But I understand smokers that won't quit. I was one. If just one person reads this and at least attemps to quit this was worth posting. My Mother and Uncle died of Cancer.

I am super allergic to smoke, and this has prevented me from going to and doing a lot of things in Argentina. When I went to Salta I ended up in the hospital because last year before the law changed the Chaqueños were puffing like chimneys everywhere I went. This ban in Iguazu is such a step in the right direction of good health for everyone, even if it is financially motivated because of tourism. Who cares? Everyone benefits!! Hooray, HOORAY!!
