Idea to send:	Topic Smoking at Will Rogers Airport Content As a frequent business traveler through our beautifully renovated Will Rogers World Airport, I am dismayed to see that we have done a poor job with planning the redesign of the building as it relates to the placement of approved "smoking locations". Visitors to our state, as well as frequent travelers like myself, are met with a barrage of cigarette smoke at the primary exit point from the airport to the outside, near baggage claim. If there is a minimal distance from the doors that these areas are supposed to located, that distance is not being enforced in any way. While the solution to the underlying problem of cigarette smoking is beyond the scope of this "idea", it remains a public health issue of prime importance to improving the overall health of our state. However, if we want to improve the image of our state, and encourage business development through corporate relocation to Oklahoma, let's not continue to perpetuate its characterization as such an unhealthy place to live. Let's work to move these approved smoking areas to a location that does not also negatively impact the non-smokers who frequent the airport and as well as visitors to our great state.
