Big news in Switzerland

It's true... Switzerland is finally starting to jump on the anti-smoking bandwagon! I thought I had seen it this morning in one of the free, local newspapers, but considering it was written in German I can never be too sure. But now I'm reading it in English. The local government in Ticino, the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland, last night voted to approve a smoking ban! Wow. If only that trend would move north to Basel. Then I wouldn't have to deal with second-hand smoke when I get my haircut anymore. I suppose I should be encouraged by this fun fact. The article on SwissInfo also says that smoking will soon be prohibited on Swiss trains! That's definitely something to celebrate.
