I can understand how in a crowded city, cigarette burns could be a problem. So, if they work, I'm good with that, if they don't... things will be the same as they would have been without them, so what's to lose but a little money?; December 16, 2008 at 11:20 PM

Is that only Japan, I don't know?
Japanese were too nerves sometimes.
You know, we can control ourselves.
.....umm.....but for me, uncomfortable if there aren't any the type of posters in Japan.
Maybe, I'm really Japanese, ahah.

Anyway, those posters are Japan cigarette company's, they try to approach us "we are good company".
Sure shot thing is, it work well to their commercial.; December 17, 2008 at 8:50 PM

A lot of people thought that anti-smoking campaigns by tobacco companies here really worked like advertising.; December 18, 2008 at 1:58 AM
