Why does the odor of cigarette smoke come from the cold return on the second floor of my vintage semi attached house.?

Answer

Sounds like your ducts need cleaned. It could be that there was a smoker in the house at some time in the past, or you could be smelling mildew or mold.
There are companies that specialize in duct-cleaning in the yellow pages.

Hope this helps!
