    What if of instead of cigarettes- they were called "tobacco joints"? Would the public still accept them as much as they have? Would the DEA or the FDA?

    We have to find another name for "Juice", or "Liquid Nicotine". That sounds scary to the laymen on the street. Hell, it even sounds a bit scary to me.

    The word "juice" is scary?

    ... It's not that they won't listen to reason, it's that if they listen to reason they'll have to redefine their moral codex and that, to some people, is more frightening than death.

    I don't normally fight the issue. I also don't approach smokers with my handy gizmo. At bars, I get tons of questions and when it's cold and rainy and the naysayers are standing outside, I'm sitting inside all nice and comfy, puffing away=)

    Haha, thats what I REALLY want to say to them!!

    I just don't get it though, how can they not understand the benefits of switching?!! Any way you cut it (haha) its better than tobacco.

    I agree it needs a "new" name. People don't care to use patches, its like a "medicine" since you can get real medication like this. But, you don't see anything that operates like this. They don't want to see whats INSIDE the patch...and ejuice can be looked at like that.

    To a non-smoker, smoking juice sounds, uh. . . like drugs.

    These are people who think it's the nicotine killing people.

    Sorry about the misunderstanding. Don't want to be negative.

    I remember my first bottle of juice- I took the lid off and sniffed it before I went to town on it. And yes, I was a little hesitant because I had never done it before. There was certainly a little trepidation on my part before I understood what was going on and before I had come here where I was educated.

    First problem - and I actually did this to a friend yesterday - its not smoking I refuse to call it that, since there is no smoke. I'm tasting the flavor, not huffing cans either. So, this is pretty similar, to me, to refilling a scented cartridge in a glade plug-in - there, im smelling it, and with this juice, im tasting it.
