You're right, of course, but as a smoker myself, we're perpetually harassed, frowned upon, castigated, kicked out into the cold and vilified for engaging in a legal activity with a legal product. Even full-blown alcoholics and drug users aren't treated as poorly, in my experience. It does feel a bit good to see it go the other way once in a while.

Hey, even *I* would buy some Mac hardware...as soon as I get that 150% raise. That stuff's expensive, but I get the idea that you're paying for more than the equipment, you're paying for the bragging right to being part of the "mac community". ;)

Getting rid of disruptive workers is discrimination?

They weren't actually fired, persay, for smoking, they were fire for being "trouble-makers".

Now, saying he's not going to hire non-smokers, that could be discrimination, but I don't know much about protected classes and civil rights laws in Germany. :)

Thanks for the shouts, Joe and Gorgeous, I'm still trying to establish a schedule for the reviews. The "series" reviews generally end up being further apart than I'd like. One I figure out how to juggle full-time job, kids, home repairs, and the needs of my lovely wife, they should even out:)

IMO, they should stick to original music rather than 'converting' known tunes to fingerstyle. I like the sounds, but have rarely liked 'redone' songs of any kind.

Are you saying that we should all just be sheep, and go along with whatever the "marketers"<sic> say we should?

Speak for yourself. I've never been good at following orders.
