SPANKS, writes a reader, to adults who think it is OK to smoke at public events, such as the Wellsville Fireman’s Festival and the Tri-State Pottery Festival, where there are many children. If you want to expose your own children to second-hand smoke, that’s one thing, but exposing other children is rude and inappropriate.
