1. A tobacco smoking apparatus for use in smoking a cigarette, said tobacco smoking apparatus comprising: an enclosure that is configured for enclosing tobacco combustion activity;wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that a user can both inhale combustion products from said enclosure and exhale combustion products into said enclosure;an air input port that is configured to input atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure when an internal gas pressure of internal gases residing inside of said enclosure is less than an atmospheric pressure of said atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure by a sufficient negative pressure value; anda gas output port that is configured to output internal gases and other combustion products residing inside of said enclosure when an internal gas pressure of said internal gases residing inside said enclosure is greater than said atmospheric pressure by a sufficient positive pressure value;wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a movable cigarette holder for holding a cigarette, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that said movable cigarette holder holds a cigarette within said enclosure, said tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that a user of said tobacco smoking apparatus can manually move said movable cigarette holder between a first position and a second position, wherein said movable cigarette holder when in said first position holds said cigarette so that a front end of said cigarette extends to a position external to said enclosure, wherein said cigarette holder when in said second position holds said cigarette so that said cigarette is entirely enclosed within said enclosure, and wherein said enclosure includes a port for use in inhaling combustion products, said tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that when said movable cigarette holder is in said second position, a back end of said cigarette is closer to said port for use in inhaling than when in said first position. 2. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a tubular structure extending from said movable cigarette holder for directing combustion products from said movable cigarette holder toward said port for use in inhaling. 3. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said movable cigarette holder is configured to be slid between said first position and said second position. 4. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said air input port has an outside portion that is pivotable between an open position and a closed position. 5. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that said atmospheric gases are input through said air input port responsively to said user inhaling said combustion products. 6. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that said internal gases are output from said enclosure responsively to said user exhaling said combustion products. 7. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a rod that can extend to an exterior of said enclosure, the smoking apparatus being configured so that said user can move said movable cigarette holder by pulling or pushing said rod. 8. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said movable cigarette holder is sized to hold said cigarette via a “snug fit” type of engagement. 9. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 1, wherein said movable cigarette holder is configured so that said cigarette can be held by said movable cigarette holder by way of a user pressing said cigarette into said movable cigarette holder. 10. A tobacco smoking apparatus for use in smoking a cigarette, said tobacco smoking apparatus comprising: an enclosure that is configured for enclosing tobacco combustion activity;an air input port that is configured to input atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure when an internal gas pressure of internal gases residing inside of said enclosure is less than an atmospheric pressure of said atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure by a sufficient negative pressure value; anda gas output port that is configured to output internal gases and other combustion products residing inside of said enclosure when an internal gas pressure of said internal gases residing inside said enclosure is greater than said atmospheric pressure by a sufficient positive pressure value;wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a movable cigarette holder for holding a cigarette, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that said movable cigarette holder holds a cigarette within said enclosure, said tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that a user of said tobacco smoking apparatus can manually move said movable cigarette holder between a first position and a second position, wherein said movable cigarette holder when in said first position holds said cigarette so that a front end of said cigarette extends to a position external to said enclosure, wherein said cigarette holder when in said second position holds said cigarette so that said cigarette is entirely enclosed within said enclosure, and wherein said enclosure includes a port for use in inhaling combustion products, said tobacco smoking apparatus configured so that when said movable cigarette holder is in said second position, a back end of said cigarette is closer to said port for use in inhaling than when in said first position. 11. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 10, wherein said movable cigarette holder is configured to be slid between said first position and said second position. 12. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 10, wherein said air input port has an outside portion that is pivotable between an open position and a closed position. 13. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 10, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a rod that can extend to an exterior of said enclosure, the tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that said user can move said movable cigarette holder by pulling or pushing said rod. 14. A tobacco smoking apparatus for use in smoking a cigarette, said tobacco smoking apparatus comprising: an enclosure that is configured for enclosing tobacco combustion activity;wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that a user can both inhale combustion products from said enclosure and exhale combustion products into said enclosure;an air input port that is configured to input atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure when an internal gas pressure of internal gases residing inside of said enclosure is less than an atmospheric pressure of said atmospheric gases residing outside of said enclosure by a sufficient negative pressure value; andwherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a movable cigarette holder for holding a cigarette, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus is configured so that said movable cigarette holder holds a cigarette within said enclosure, said tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that a user of said tobacco smoking apparatus can manually move said movable cigarette holder between a first position and a second position, wherein said movable cigarette holder when in said first position holds said cigarette so that a front end of said cigarette extends to a position external to said enclosure, and wherein said enclosure includes a port for use in inhaling combustion products, said tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that when said movable cigarette holder is in said second position, a back end of said cigarette is closer to said port for use in inhaling than when in said first position. 15. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 14, wherein said movable cigarette holder is configured to be slid between said first position and said second position. 16. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 14, wherein said air input port has an outside portion that is pivotable between an open position and a closed position. 17. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 14, wherein said tobacco smoking apparatus includes a rod that can extend to an exterior of said enclosure, the tobacco smoking apparatus being configured so that said user can move said movable cigarette holder by pulling or pushing said rod. 18. The tobacco smoking apparatus of claim 14, wherein said cigarette holder when in said second position holds said cigarette so that said cigarette is entirely enclosed within said enclosure.
