Sure hope they put up designated smoking huts, as last year's was way too smokey. Smokers need to know where they can go to smoke and not hurt kids.

Glad this event is happening again. Things like this are good for the town of martinsville. Thanks to all who are responsible for making it happen.

It is hard to regulate smoking at an outdoor event. The course is large enough so that people who are really sensitive or high at risk from second hand smoke should be able to find an area of people who are sensitive to the needs of others rather than their own selfish yellow-stained hands.

I bet you freak out when some one in your area has a cookout. All smoke has carcinogens, not just tobacco smoke.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but just plain common sense should tell each of us to take care of our bodies, not put stuff in it that is harmful when we can. If you can avoid breathing in carcinogens it makes good sense to do it. Freak out? No need, just use your head and don't expose yourself any more than absolutely necessary.

And more important, the person's health next to you should be more important that your own. Take care of theirs and yours will be better too.

Have'nt you learned yet? Everything is bad for you. Just ask the researchers.


Here's an idea. If the fat poeple will stay away because they are encouraging my grandsons that being fat and lazy is cool, then maybe we won't smoke out in the open air where there is no chance of anyone being harmed.

I can see that there are those who have dogs in this fight and with thin skins too.

I mean, c'mon man. The best you can do is that other bad ideas make yours ok? We did that in the 5th grade. But Ma, he does worse things than me!
