Yep, yep, exactly. I just ordered the Dragon M401 - totally doesn't look like a real cigarette, which was what I thought I wanted at first, turns out it wasn't 
Really doubt I'll go and use it though where smoking is banned. If the owners aren't aware of what a PV is, it just seems a little...disrespectful...to me.

No double whammy for MickeyD... they stopped using oil with transfats. All that's left is the little bit that's in beef naturally. Another win for our nanny government.
So how will they fund their pet projects when all our sins have been banned or taxed into oblivion?

Legally, yes. But it's still up to the owner of the business. You can't get a ticket for vaping in a nonsmoking place, but if the owner of the business doesn't like it, they can legally toss you out.

After all the vapor is visible and people are going to think your smoking something.
It's better to be discreet, invisible, until this whole
FDA stuff blows over.
Mind you. i was vaping in switzerland on outside terraces...and people were staring at me as if i were an Alien.
I do not like to attract attention.
Totally agree. Let this blow over. I do not vape at all in public, other than when I'm driving. I'm not smoking, but people certainly think I am.
I can wait a few minutes until I get out of Best Buy.

I've had no problems at work. I've had all the smokers try it including my store manager. She wants to get one too! I just sit in the back room and puff away.

Exactly why I like the black 510 with blue LED. The less it looks like a cigarette, the less likely they'll you're smoking and just ask what you're doing.
Yesterday we were in the non-smoking section of a local cafe and I took a few puffs from my PV. (People were smoking back in the smoking section.) The waitress saw it, came up and said, "What IS that thing?" And when I told her she said, "I thought so. We were just talking about those at school (university) the other day." I could help but ask why they were tqlking about it and she said they were outside smoking and someone brought up the oncoming winter (I'm in northern Wisconsin) and someone else mentioned e-cigs. I showed her how it works and told her the price and, as usual with smokers, her eyes lit up!
As a former Applebee's manager, I certainly would go to higher management and point out how vaping is becoming a popular alternative for smokers and since it's legal, restaurants who allow it will have a larger customer base! If they want, they can have a vaping section!

Let's face it, if your going into "Best Buy" or any other establishment for a short amount of time whats the point in taking in your pv? To draw attention? ( Hey, look what I can do and its not smoking! Try and stop me?) This kind of menatlity put us back two steps for every positive step we take in the "right" direction. We have a product here that most everyone here will agree is the only thing to get them off the analogs. We surely do not need to add to the false negatives. Education not Retardation!
