on the golden age of smoking on airplanes...

Robert Fripp's Diary for Tuesday, 22nd June 2010:

One of the dopiest approaches to smoking control in my own experience: I was in a left aisle-seat in the no smoking section, and the man on my right across the aisle lit up. I brought this up with the stewardess. The 6-seat configuration with central aisle had the left 3-row seating designated no smoking; the right 3-row seating designated smoking; and the aisle designated as smoke-barrier.
