The E-Cigarette in Public Have you used e-cigarettes in no-smoking areas? How did those around you react? Is it the perfect way around the smoking ban?

I think your right Bob, if Big Business realizes about e-smoking and thinks they can exploit a big market, they will steam roller right into the sector... Governments can always help their corporate friends by banning interim sales and creating legislation that lets Big Pharma etc, stroll right in and cosume the sector..

Cant believe the retarded comments from the lady at the end, its look like the judgement of a non smoker, forming an opinion of something they no nothing about.

As a smoker that feels I have benefited from my e-smoking already, anything that helps stop the use of tobacco to me is a good thing...

I totally agree with you -rich businessmen go to China getting manufactured in China then ship it back to the UK
The most annoying thing about this is that some so-called UK manufacturers and the majority of suppliers have never even smoked a cigarette I personally know this because I have spoken to majority of them.
There are few genuine suppliers in the UK and we all know who they are. Who we can truly trust not mention no names but you all know who I mean.
There are also suppliers in the UK which have had their own brand name stamped on the goods. But they don't claim to be the manufacture. Which there is nothing wrong with doing this as they're only trying to genuinely get this recognized to promote electronic cigarette in the UK.
The one only good thing you can say about these so-called UK manufacturers is that they are publicising this quite well which hopefully everybody will benefit from. It's just a shame that they can't back this up with a far superior product which has been designed and made by British engineers. But I suppose those days have gone. When we all used to see-made in Great Britain are a thing of the past. Years ago if you saw a product which had made in Great Britain or made in the USA you always knew that you were getting a quality product. As a musician I always played American products because they were the world leader far as I was concerned. Now most of these are made in China especially chrome stands. America always produced the best chrome and that now seems to have died . Which is such a shame. Example look at all the old American cars. Anyway I won't bore you any more that's just my opinion

Unless they cut a deal where they get paid for an endorsement - as they did with some pharma NRT in one of their many "corporate cancer industry" partnerships. Then you'll see a change in tune. But so far we have no players in such a position.

The primary activity of the American Cancer Society is to raise money for the American Cancer Society. That conclusion is well supported by numerous charity ratings groups. They're like US Senators who have to raise 10k every day to fund their re-election campaign so that's what they do instead of running the country.

We. Aren't. Of. Value.
