Puffing imbeciles

There is a very good reason why none of the buildings at Dubai Media City phase 2 have their numbers visible from the road. No one knows what this reason is, but it must be a very good reason, because otherwise even a single-celled amoeba with no brain would consider putting numbers up a relatively helpful plan.

But some wisdom is being shown by Tecom authorities. Once, thick clouds of foul smoke filled every stairway, cafe, and courtyard at Dubai Media City, choking workers and making buildings stinking and stale. Now, a fairly draconian smoking ban has finally cleared up the insidious human smog.

And so the Cretin of the Zillennium award goes to "Sana Aqtash", arguably the stupidest cow that ever set foot in the freezone:

"It's good and bad. The good part is that the smokers will cut down on their smoking as they won’t be able to leave the office as much. The bad part is no one should decide on behalf of the smokers. Smokers know better than anyone else what the out come of smoking is. If they care about the views of non-smoking people, they have to care about the views smokers as well."
