I cannot express how delighted I am that I am now able to spend an evening out in the restaurants and bars of this city and I can come home without stinking of cigarette smoke. No longer do I have to rip my clothes off as soon as I get home and stuff them in the laundry hamper and take a shower to get rid of the smell. No turning over in my sleep in the middle of the night to a noseful of smoky hair. No spending the next morning coughing up phlegm as my lungs attempt to clean themselves out.
A revolution indeed.
Oh, and you can hear more of our discussion of this revolution (amongst other things) on the podcast. ;)

I'm right with ya! Love it, love it, LOVE IT!
Amen. What a wonderful thing.
Yup, same thing here in Munich, too. Make working in the Hostel (especially when I have a bar shift) a lot more pleasant now - especially since I'm not a smoker.
Totally agreed -- it's a complete revolution! And a refreshing one at that, even if a lot of people think it has changed the "ambiance" of Paris -- I say TANT PIS!
