I've heard that in places where smoking in public establishments has
been banned that bars enjoy an increase in revenues.  Where they feared
the opposite.  Discuss:

- - More customers who had previously been turned off by the smoky
environment?

- - Smokers consuming more to offset their nicotine jones?

- - The market decided that a smoking ban is a good thing?
