Hooray!! Someone with a modicum of sense (this is Dave Noble isn't it!!!!!

I believe that parents should be the ones to introduce youngsters to taste things be they alchoholic or not - in moderation. None of my french schoolchums kids drink much at all - no sprits and only a little wine with meals.
Smokers should be allowed to smoke on board as much as they like, and a designated area shold be allocated for them. The wings for preference.
Seriously though - I and lots of colleagues think that the day that smoking was totally banned, incidents of air rage increased. That said, none of us want it back - ever.
