E-Cigarettes 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?

Hey, I see you are from Aiken. I absolutely love your town. My daughter went to school at USCA, and I loved visiting.

Actually, the rate of smoking in the military has gone up due to OEF, etc., deployments. And the brass are not pleased.

Maybe some vendors out there could donate some starter kits to some troops who would like to try them out. Hey - young folks love tech stuff.

As a vet who understands the lure of nicotine when in the sandbox, I'd love to find ways to help these guys get off the cancer stick before they become hopelessly addicted, and end up like me - a 30-year smoker with all the unpleasant side effects that go along with it. I realize that there are logistical problems with charging batts in the field, etc., but at least they could vape back in the hooch.

These guys are coming home with addictions that will haunt them the rest of their lives.

How about it, vendors? Anybody willing to step up to the plate here? Even free shipping or free juice would be a start. Just a thought.

I'm glad to see the Army is making the right choice about e-cigs. I can totally see old school Generals starting to smoke in their offices like they did in the past
