As part of Gawker's ongoing commitment to service journalism, a list of all the places where cigarette smokers will still be able to puff, from April. Michael Bloomberg should realize that, through prohibition, he's transformed a declining proletarian habit into a delightfully wicked fad. Witness the following ingenious loopholes.
· Soho House [private member media club]
· Daniel Boulud's bus [with self-emptying ashtrays]
· Grand Central Terminal [over which the City has no jurisdiction]
· Hookah bars [because they derive much of their business from tobacco]
· Bar communes [so long as each worker has a stake of at least a third]
· Lot 61's patio
· Cigar Aficionado's Big Smoke benefit [because Rudy goes]
· VIP room at the Time Cafe [tough on non-smoking celebs]
· Illegal venues [one club plans to fund fines from a raffle]
