For the most part, I vape everywhere. I don't go out of my way to get noticed.
When I'm in a store, I will vape in the isles, but I don't while at the check stand or standing in front of an employee while talking to them.
While in a restaurant, I don't wait for the waiter/waitress to come to the table then vape, I vape in between.
At someone's house, I will ask and abide by their decision. My family and friends that know what it is, don't have an issue.
Over the last year, I have been questioned in stores & restaurants, probably 4 times, but not denied after explaining to them.
Most of the time, I don't get a second glance. The last public place I vaped at was sitting at a bar having a beer with my PV sitting on the counter. There were 2 bartenders and less customers and didn't even get a look.
I vape when I want, but I don't do it to get noticed, so I don't go out of my way to make sure people see me.
I will also be discrete when I feel I need to, whether real or imagined.

I'm definitely guilty of smoking in my office, and in the server rooms while i'm working
But no, I don't smoke it any where else really. I'm still trying to quit analogs so I'm only using my pv when I would normally smoke a cig.

I work in a bar and do security. I helped set the owner's policy on the thing: we do not allow vaping by customers on the premises and I do not vape indoors while the bar is open for business. We adopt this policy because if we were to allow vaping indoors, even by employees, we would have to explain to all the smokers why they, too, weren't allowed to smoke indoors.
Basically, the current disgusting cultural climate makes individual choices (even smart ones) impossible.

Surely that's where signage comes into play. It's easy enough to have no smoking signs up along with "electronic cigarette use is permitted within this venue" type signs.
As long as your local legislation is displayed, where's the problem?
