The game was all "It's time to punish these EVIL DRUG DEALERS" because, you know, they shoved the cocaine down the girl's nose. By the way, expect me to cover Police Quest eventually.

I choose not to (among other reasons, I'm INCREDIBLY allergic to tobacco) but I don't bitch at other people to not do so. I also think that all of this anti-smoking propaganda is bullshit. Yes, smoking kills. You know what else kills? Artificial sweeteners, aspirin, chocolate, peanuts, AIR, etc... People are constantly saying that tobacco should be outlawed. Remember when they outlawed alcohol? Remember how horribly that turned out? I think people should have the right to smoke.

First off, you can't just reprogram the billboard to make different shapes, unless whoever made the thing made the machinery overly complicated. They'd probably make it only able to create 'o's. Second, the thing probably shouldn't have a computer anyway. At most it'd have a simple control panel to adjust settings; the majority would be purely mechanical in nature. The entire concept of a billboard that blows smoke rings is stupid anyway. The cost would be enormous, and it wouldn't be all that impressive anyway.
