I agree, smoke is a problem...

Hi CJ,

I doubt stirring the air will eliminate the second hand cigarette smoke at Fusco's The Spot.

It would probably be cheaper and more effective to have smokers walk outside to have their cigarette. :)
 
I just wanted to say that FUSCO'S THE SPOT IS A GREAT PLACE TO PLAY POOL AND SMOKING IS ALLOWED. love it :eek:
 
So the First Amendment shouldn't apply to discussions regarding Fusco's The Spot exploiting a loophole to endanger the health and well being of their "private club" members? I get it, let's not talk about it so the problem can go away. :)
You really missed the point. I'm not saying you can't discuss something. What I am saying is that your personal choices and opinions shouldn't result in legislating over someone's private property rights.

The problem isn't the business exploiting a loophole at the expense of customers health it's the customer who "CHOOSES" to risk their health because they want to enter the establishment.

See there its a choice. Just because you make certain choices that you think are right doesn't mean everyone has to make the same choices.

People like you are the real problem..you want to strip private property rights because you don't like the choices that other people make.

What you should do is mind your own business and if you want a smoke free pool room then exercise your free will and ability to make choices and open one.
 
The sooner poolmouse realizes he's the problem the better off he'll be. I'm sure mommy and daddy once told you that the world doesn't revolve around you. Having an opinion is great but bashing a place because they don't drop everything to accommodate your personal preferences is petty and classless.

Why are you not complaining about the pool hall serving alcohol which has far more reaching health issues...or restaurants that serve fatty food.

Funny how you selectively choose which health danger to stand behind.

How did your big time gambling match come out with Oscar? Surely you didn't let one of the best players in the country come into your room and play some measly $50 pool?
 
I agree, smoke is a problem, however - one possible solution for pool room owners:

When you need a way to help the smoke issues, follow this simple guideline.

Put ceiling fans 8' apart, covering your ceiling square footage. Then make sure that each fan is rotating the opposite direction from the one beside it. This creates a positive air circulation that sucks the smoke immediately up into the ceiling and away from you customers.

This is a cheap, yet very effective way to deal with "second hand smoke" on a limited budget. 'The Game is the Teacher'

Where does it go from there? I have ceiling fans in my house and the air goes across the ceiling, down the walls and back across the floor creating a circulating air flow. The only value it seems to have is not having a fan blowing on your head that can be unpleasant.
 
You really missed the point. I'm not saying you can't discuss something.

Awesome!

Do you think a Clean Indoor Air Act exception is a right or a privilege?

Do you know that a Clean Indoor Air Act exemption carries a set of clearly outlined mandates imposed by Pennsylvania?

Do you know there are penalties imposed on businesses that don't need those obligations; including fines and possible loss of exemption status?

Do you feel Fusco's The Spot is meeting their exemption obligations under the Clean Indoor Air Act?

What I am saying is that your personal choices and opinions shouldn't result in legislating over someone's private property rights.

That ship sailed a long time ago. ;)

It's not about whether Fusco's The Spot is "entitled" to allow smoking. There is a difference between entitlement and exception.

It's about the mandates Fusco's The Spot is obligated to adhere to under the Clean Indoor Air Act exception rules.

Blowing smoke about air purifiers is a farce.

Not carding each and every person who walks thought the door says a lot about their "private club" position.

Not clearly stating on their website that they are a "private club" that allows smoking goes against the intent of the Clean Indoor Air Act.

Not clearly stating outside the entrance that they are a "private club" that allows smoking is a great way to bait non smokers into the club.

I'm not a gambler but I'm gonna bet Pennsylvania will be more than happy to put Fusco's The Spot under a magnifying glass.

This isn't 1999, second hand cigarette smoke is not a joke.

Whatever "ACT" or "Mandate" that strips a private property owners right to offer a smoking establishment to paying adults is Anti-American and agenda driven by people who wish to take liberties away from others.

This establishment shouldn't have to be a "private club" to allow smoking.

You and others who advocate and push this kind of legislation clearly have no concept of private property vs. public property.

You also have no concept of free will and your ability to make choices as you demand that others be stripped of their right of choices in order to accommodate yours.

You and people like you are 100% the problem. Its not enough to take care of yourself or better yet you're not intelligent enough to take care of yourself and you require laws in order to keep yourself from making bad choices. So you push to remove the free will of all people because you're incapable of exercising your own.
 
It doesn't take long for a thread like this to spread like wildfire. Check the number of hits so far. ;)

You need to try to leverage this a little and add some global warming action from them little bitty fires at the end of them cigs.

Nah. Tobacco is the leading cause of death in the US. Not just drug-related, not just preventable or behavioral causes - the leading cause. It's close to half a million Americans dead per year, and that's even after a large decrease in smoking over the past several decades.

Alcohol is the cause of probably less than 20% of that total, even though far more people drink than smoke. It's involved in all kinds of bad behavior, crimes, assaults, etc. But you can also drink alcohol with no harmful effects and possibly health benefits, which is not true of tobacco.

Honestly, I can't believe it's legal to sell cigarettes, given that you can't sell things that are far less harmful.
