Some words on the law

Ole Zork had yet to enact the draconian statutes so prevalent in other municipalities re alcohol and tobacco. For that reason, Todd could go back on the cigarettes without the cabdriver blowing a gasket and shouting/quoting the names of acts and legislative numbers through the sliding glass hatch; a scene so ubiquitous in film, for example, that we've all witnessed it a thousand times: a driver bellowing into a cab's cavernous back area 'Put out that cigarette you filthy animal! You're in direct contravention of the Tobacco Banishment Act, 1997 - subsection VII as it pertains to trains, taxis, buses and planes!'
