Becoming more and more mainstream

[Vocalek]

Yes, electronic cigarettes are starting to enter the US culture in many ways.

Today's sports section of the Washington Post mentioned them.

Still, even the most curmudgeonly of the curmudgeons say the Nats will not be awful this season.

That’s right: not awful. Put that in your electronic cigarette and vaporize it.

For those of you too young to have heard the original saying, it was "Put that in your pipe and smoke it!" meaning "So there!"

"…and vaporize it." That sounds so futuristic, I like it. I just hope it doesn't take that long to go full mainstream!

You're way ahead of the UK. There are still lots of people here who haven't heard of the electronic cigarette.

They are getting more popular up here.The cable guy came and we were talking about them and he said:You mean those little steam machines?It was a guy from the geek squad who got me thinking about it.He said he quit using an e cig so I started researchig it.I didn't want to spend the money on another failed attempt but my husband kept nagging me about it.
