I like the way the public debate is shaping up. This is an incredibly good piece of PR for e-cigarettes.

Good Article--this quote seems very promising with regards to safety--but of course the Politics and Money will most likey win:

"Dr Nitzkin estimated that if every smoker in the US smoked electronic cigarettes the resulting death toll would be between 400 and 4000 a year.
The compares to the 400,000 estimated deaths caused by smoking regular cigarettes."

Associated content is just a community forum. At least it shows up in google news, so maybe a few people will happen upon these articles.

The LA Times article will reach far more people.

I'm optimistic that they won't get away with it this time. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

Yes, and that one was quite positive too. The attempt at scare tactics appears to be fizzling.

according to one article a read on here at least one senator threatened a fillibuster if they tried to ban them. so maybe it won't pass

Now there's a novel approach, printing the truth, I can't say I've seen a lot of that lately.

That puts me in an awkward mental position. I hate filibusters because IMO they're a betrayal of the democratic process.

It really is hard for everyone to look the other way when you have Doctor's making statements like that one--I contend that as more Doctors jump on board about it being much safer then Analogs--the Politics may very well turn in our favor------Sun
