I don't smoke, but I'd be tempted to smoke in that room/bldg just to drive home the point of how absurd the sign is. "Smoking? Why yes I am - it's 'discouraged,' not 'prohibited,' thanks."

Careful Richardson, the next step by the UN would be "We REALLY discourage smoking"

Then of course the next step would be that the UN would effectively be stalled in its efforts to discourage you because of motions by Brazil, Venezuela and Iran in favor of your right to develop peaceful smoking habits.
