What you call "bias" I call a statement of fact. Second-hand smoke is a proven cancer-causing carcinogen. I personally have observed smokers --especially inMost smokers i have seen on my LD trips have been pretty good about stepping away from the car and congregating in one or two easy to avoid spots. I dont smoke but I think the bias against smokers is a bit over the top.
winter--staying close to the train door, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. And just because the smokers are 20 feet away or in "an easy to avoid spot" doesn't
mean their smoke stays 20 feet away or is easy to avoid.
Again, I'm not blaming smokers for causing people to miss getting back on the train on time. I'm just explaining one reason why people feel the need to wander
a bit further afield than they should. Non-smokers who want to stretch their legs but not inhale cigarette smoke. Not bias, just truth.
