American Cancer Society's 16 Cigarette Claim Used to Pass Ballwin Smoking

"She said that 2 hours in a smoking environment as a worker is the same as ingesting 4 cigarettes in 2 hours as a non-smoker. In an 8 hour shift, non-smokers are ingesting 16 cigarettes or ¾ of a pack."

Honestly, if that were true I would vote for a smoking ban too, unless the owner put a skull and crossbones on his front door.
