I saw this earlier but didn't have time to read it so I saved the link. I just went back and read it and when I got to the end I burst out laughing.
I'd missed who the author was at the top :facepalm:

Vapinglinks has a letter addressed to the President with a lot of good links in it - the one front and center is Dr F's. There is also a poll at the end about how vaping impacted you.

This article tries to show the pros and cons, but is poor in its sources on both sides (junk science, CDC, save the children vs limited documentation for the positive research and 'it may be better' type statements).
It is open for comments!

Sigh. I am tired of all the negative news. This piece from the Society for HR Management just adds to it: Health Groups Offer Guidance on E-Cigarettes in the Workplace

Although the test was done with cigalikes, it was nice to read some good news.
I found this list of states with e-cig regs while wandering the web. It says it's updated as of Jan. 1, 2015.
There is also a link to their e-cig info page which is choc full of junk from Mr. G. There are links to their 'research', but I think some have been debunked (WHO and metal...
I feel bad for the kids in these communities. Disciplinary action for using an e-cig can go on their record or they get suspended rather than a note to the parents and counseling. Their greatest fear is that the ecig will be used for Other Stuff.
There is a brief sentence from Greg Conley...

I broke the link because the article references a study on an ECF banned substance used by soldiers in Vietnam, but the article relates it to the difficulties in breaking the smoking habit.

I saw this link when reading a story about NYC. It started out ok: Dutch sound alarm about possible risks of e-cigarettes
I'd like to see the NIPH analysis, but the precautionary statement wasn't too bad compared to the usual 'we don't know so ban it' position I've seen all to often. We...
