duesentrieb, I bet there is a 'line' between Europeans and Americans on this to some degree. I have found that most Europeans who visit my Swiss friends are smokers and look askance at our (American) views on smoking. Smile-next time I'd look for some title that is a little more subtle but says the same thing. My "Not in our back yard" was every bit as 'moralistic' or 'chiding' as yours, but I didn't get snide remarks from those who think environmentalists go too far. Then again, maybe 'everyone' is for the environment in one way or another (depends on how much it hits your pocket book or 'rights' I guess) and smoking is a 'rights' issue from many people's viewpoint from the 'getgo' (and scientific facts just don't seem to be important in the baggage on this emotional issue). From the artistic standpoint, very well done pic. I tend to agree with your decision. Just stick to the technical details--we won't get in trouble that way G. Diane B
