    - walking out of my building at lunch is like getting attacked by Evil Locke -- nm - pixie krakow May 19, 17:25
- on the East Coast yes. In Kentucky you're lucky if people don't smoke in the church. -- nm - loosilu May 19, 17:22
- no -- nm - Nightcrawler May 19, 17:21
- yup -- nm - dogbert May 19, 17:04 8
  - I want west coast people to answer! I think we think differently. ;) -- nm - kare May 19, 17:06 7
    - I got used to going away behind the building or out by the perimeter fence, but I was mostly in places where the restrictions were spelled out. -- nm - MojaveMeg May 19, 17:09
    - i don't smoke -- nm - pixie krakow May 19, 17:07 5
      - but if you did! - kare May 19, 17:14 3
        
        My opinion is "this isn't your problem". Let the smokers worry about where they can and can't smoke. - Ender May 19, 17:24 1
        
        seriously ... if you don't designate a place, they will choose a place, and you might not like it. -- nm - loosilu May 19, 17:25
        
        Smokers are people; some are considerate, some aren't. Outside means smoking, kids or no kids. -- nm - CrankYanker May 19, 17:20
      - neither do I -- nm - dogbert May 19, 17:09
- Signs should read "Smoking area is in your own home or your own car, thank you". -- nm - CrankYanker May 19, 16:55
- Is it 25 feet from any entrance? - the liioulu without cake May 19, 16:49 2
  - actually most of the areas are within 25 feet of entrances, which is similar to WA law too. but this is a private farm so i'm not sure that law - kare May 19, 16:51 1
    - Neither am I, but you can make it apply if you want to. -- nm - the liioulu without cake May 19, 16:52
- if outside I would assume it's ok to smoke, but not near the area where the ceremony is..... -- nm - Remlik May 19, 16:46 9
  - even if kids and others are out there? - kare May 19, 16:47 8
    - You gotta give the smokers a place to smoke, or they'll find a place. -- nm - loosilu May 19, 17:23
    - yeah people will smoke. Now maybe not in the kids area, but I gurantee they will smoke... - Remlik May 19, 16:52 2
      - concurrence. -- nm - TFox May 19, 16:53
      - i think there's only three smokers attending, and one wouldn't smoke in any common areas inside or out. - kare May 19, 16:53
    - yes. make it clear it is a no smoking event, anywhere. -- nm - peglegpete May 19, 16:49 3
      - just seems like such an obvious courtesy to me. -- nm - kare May 19, 16:52 2
        
        they're addicted. Some smokers would rather leave the reception early if they're really jonesing. - loosilu May 19, 17:25
        
        I agree....but it's people who smoke, they're gonna do it. -- nm - Remlik May 19, 16:52

  - [deleted] 4
    - This is probably true, but Harry is the best nomination to replace Simon that I've heard. - Dr.Vermin May 19, 16:33
    - i don't understand them trying to launch X Factor with him and keep Idol without him at the same time - pixie krakow May 19, 16:29 1

- Damn. This could backfire on the Linda McMahon campaign. -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) May 19, 16:22
- that's remarkably consistent, for any group of people. but anyway, they're reporters and should factchecking these things regardless of suspicion. -- nm - Max May 19, 16:15

- green blob from outer space hitting the earth???? -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 19, 16:12
- totally a koosh ball. -- nm - kare May 19, 15:27 3
  - I don't think it can be, unless a koosh ball disintegrates on impact. -- nm - loosilu May 19, 15:32
  - well - a plastic ball. one of those squeezy balls that you squeeze and the center becomes a different color -- nm - kare May 19, 15:31 1
    - Ah! -- nm - mara May 19, 15:32
- source video. -- (link) - Beryllium May 19, 15:27 [youtube] 4
  - (The koosh ball is towards the end, and it is identified as such in the description. And this one is in HD.) -- nm - Beryllium May 19, 15:31 3
    - that's just someone's description, though. I think it's the other kind, as above. -- nm - b. May 19, 15:33 1

      - actually, now that I see the creator posted that from europe, it could be gum as rubber... - b. May 19, 15:28 5
        
        Yeah, I figured there might be a language thing going on. I wondered if the appearance of a center was an illusion. -- nm - mara May 19, 15:30 4
        
        i have one just like the one in the video. it's a plastic ball with a gel like center. - kare May 19, 15:33 2
