    Given that space is at a premium in Los Angeles, I do most of my smoking indoors. There are some benefits to smoking inside.....watching tv/movie or surfing the web. Also, smoking at a lounge is always a good time.....I have a soft spot in my heart for relaxing on a nice leather couch and being surrounded by flat screen tv's while having a fine smoke.

    On the other hand, smoking outdoors can be nice too...especially if the weather's nice and if you have a decent place to smoke. I don't know if this would count as "outside" but I love having a smoke while driving.

    Needless to say, I'm fine with smoking indoors or out as long as it's comfortable.

    I prefer to smoke indoors, but that's almost impossible now that we have the smoking ban and the wife is not too fond of the smoke.

    If I could, I would smoke in the house.......but my wife doesn't want me to so I don't. I smoke outside on the deck on in MY garage where I rule.

    I agree that wind while smoking makes it less enjoyable.....but, I live in Kansas, so there is always some wind. I've learned to live with it and have a spot on the patio that is mainly sheltered from the prevailing wind.

    I do prefer smoking outdoors. The second-hand smoke that lingers in a room is too hard on my sinuses. Although not like Kansas, we too have some wind. I go in my workshop to toast and light and then out to the deck.
    I'm working on a prototype for an electric lighter that won't be affected at all by the wind. It will toast and light without touching the cigar. When I say electric I mean it actually plugs into an outlet. I'll post some pics as soon as I can get an image page published to my website.

    In the winter I smoke in the basement due to the whether and in the summer I smoke outside. Honestly I prefer to be out side smoking in the nice fresh air. But at the same time I do enjoy a nice smoke inside every so often.
    Yay! Cigars!

    Outside. The only place inside I smoke is at our B&M, which is also a wine bar and I can't stand bars. I do go in once in a blue moon in the afternoon when no one else is there and read and smoke a cigar.

    Dittio. The shorter half does not like me smoking inside, and honsetly, i dont want our apt to smell like my cigar shop does. Although, at one point i did live in a apt which i would occasionally smoke in. The weird thing was that when ever i smoked one, the building fire alarm would always go off, weird. I wonder if they ever figured that one out?
