France May Ban Smoking in Public Places

France may soon impose a smoking ban in public places such as cafes and restaurants. Quel surprise! I really thought France would be the last country to implement a smoking ban.

A ban would send a shock through France's smoker-friendly culture, where smoky cafes have long been redoubts of Paris' intelligentsia. The French presidency's Web site features a photo of a young President Jacques Chirac with a cigarette in his mouth.
