I was born in the early 80s. Yes I remember a time when so many people smoked and indoor smoking was extremely common.

Even children's places were ok for adults to smoke in. You know on how many arcade bars today they have cup holders bolted onto the machines for people to put their drinks (alcoholic or otherwise)? Back in the 80s and 90s, they had the same thing in many of those arcades... but they were bolted on ashtrays.

I recently sat in a flight with a Boeing so old it still had ashtrays.

I can't even Imagine this...

Edit: Of course none of them functional or used in any way... Same with the "non smoking" signs next to the "seatbelts" light up thingies on every seat group.

You're probably talking about a plane so old it had ashtrays in the arm rests. Just as an interesting note, though, the FAA still requires ashtrays on new aircraft. Not in every seat, but they're required to have one in each lavatory. They are also all required to have the no smoking signage as a constant reminder that there is absolutely no smoking.

Better to have an ashtray than to let someone who needs to light up set the bathroom trash on fire

I don't get non-smoking signs in many places. Smoking bans have been around for so long that the signs almost feel redundant.

I remember that too!
