I don't get out much, but when the girl in the office upstairs switched to v4ls I knew it was catching on. She's very social and she's out there turning peeps on to it every day.

I've spoken of it before, but my sister turned me on to vaping and it has helped restore a relationship I thought was beyond repair. So bonding, yeah, I likes it. :)

I do see other vapers here and there..... standing outside restaurants, walking down the street; always as the sole vaper. I've also looked in my rear view mirror at a stoplight and seen a blue LED firing in the car in back of me.

The only "bonding" sort of thing was just recently on a road trip. It was at night and I was on the highway with my vGo (you know, the one with the green spotlight on the end :)), passing a semi, and my car has a panoramic glass roof. The driver honked at me with a regular sort of horn - not the loud semi horn. I looked up and he was waving an e-cig with a blue LED at me; I smiled and waved back. Never happened while smoking an analog...

Jeffree sir outside of those helped made the switch, sadly haven't ran into many. The few though I have we've automatically had an instant connection. Most were at dogfish head or in dc, and most used egos. Have had a few switch over to V4L because of me though. Once they see the difference in airflow and voltage, mah disappears... :)

I know what you mean, Jeffree. I feel that way too, like there is something that binds us lol. We had a get together of vapers here in spokane recently and it is so nice to get and give feedback, and have others be as excited about this thing as you are, because nobody else cares hahahaha. None of my friends want to know about or talk about this stuff, or they think its gross or whatever so you are kinda floating all alone out there.

Today i went into a local shop -- the Vapor Lounge -- and the people there were so cool. They tried my equipment and i probably could have stayed there a lot longer if we were not in a hurry.

I meet vapers now and then.I met one yesterday at the Navy ID office.She had a very expensive ecig that looked really cheaply made.I showed her my new Titan with a WoW carto,let her try it and then gave her a V4L card.She in turn let me keep my old (pretty) picture on my new ID card. We were both happy.

The only random vaper,I think, was a guy in a PU going through the intersection that saw me hitting my VK and gave me a thumbs up. I still wonder if he was a fellow vaper or a crackhead :D
Other than that only a couple people at work that are on/off vapers. I really wish I had a 'vaper lounge' like V4L has.Hopefully someday there will be vaper franchises!

I live in metro Atlanta - huge place, full of people and I haven't seen anyone with one. Granted I tend to stay in my own NE corner of the metro area, but that county is the most densely populated in the area. I know people are aware of them though - the owner of our fave restaurant lets me vape and it caught the attention of some other patrons who seemed to be fascinated by my V4L. I do take the cards V4L sends with me where ever I go to present to people if they ask.
