Thats funny, I havent seen a place that allows smoking except in designated 
sections, in a LONG time.  Most of the places I go to allow it, but I know of 
a large number that are smoke free.
California Law makes it all smoke-free.  Made a mess of the finances and many 
restraunts folded because of it.  See, something like 20% of the populace 
smokes, and that 20% simply didnt dine out as often when they changed the 
laws there.  Restraunts, many of them, just couldnt survive an almost 20% 
loss of business.
