i'm in a grey area. I rarely smoke any analogs. I will have a cigar once in a while, now that i'm working again I'll probably indulge in a few for my commute. The last time I really smoked cigs was when I went to see AC/DC a few weeks ago. I didn't want my M401 or homemade magnum confiscated! Of course smoking is banned at that venue now, so I hid in the toilet like everyone else for my smokes. Never got busted.

I really notice that smoke smells different now. Like it did before I started smoking. i actually like the smell of sidestream smoke....the smoke that trails off the end of a cigarette.

I am going back and forward to analogs, but it is not because I don't enjoy the e-cig, my problem is to have it ready to go, sometimes take for ages to get a package with e-liquid or spare atomizers, if I could buy e-cigs and all the necessary to just vaping in an easier manner I'm sure I'll never go back to analogs.

Totally quit since October 17, 2008 (except for two separate days/one pack each day when I had technical problems with my ecigs). Before that, one and one-half to two packs a day for 44 years, mixed in with too many to count quit attempts!

Been using e-cigs for about 5 months, but still smoking analogs until about 3 weeks ago. Finally dialed in the right mix of devices and juice and I don't need the smokes anymore!

Default Tobacco free since Nov. 8, 2008

Had to be in the hospital and then a place for rehabilitating my broken bones for a total of 3 weeks. That's all it took to quit regular cigs and use only e-cig. Both places let me, too.

It has been 16 days for me. Not a single drag of tobacco since I got my e-cigar, which was soon followed by a 901.

I had been a smoker since I was 14 (I am now 41). I gave up cigarettes several years ago and moved to cigars. I was averaging about 10 cigars a day.

While the e-cig does not completely feel like smoking, it is really much better. Now I am just worried that e-cigs will be banned outright in the near future.
