Love the few comments to the author...e-smokers who dispute his article!

That is terrible. I would love to flood that writer with letters, but don't think it would even get a correction on the back page...
Apparently this U of VA study is referenced already here (I was about to post my own links 
)

E-Cigarettes Give Poor Delivery Of Drug Smokers Crave - Courant.com
on the left of the article is another link to someone [reporter] who tried the e-cig and juggles both vaping and smoking.
Interesting how a "Dr" leaves a smoking cessation program link in the comments of both articles - which are clinical trials - like smoking and alcoholism, smoking and schizophrenia -reminds me of ambulance chasers or those in NYC who watch the obits so they know which apartments will be available.....

Thats kind of funny. I used to live there. It doesn't surprise me that the Courant is a day late and a dollar short. They always were.
Either they closed comments or they are censoring them. I submitted a comment but it didn't seem to post.

Just one question was this person on drugs? or maybe bought out by the tobacco companies?
Fair and balanced, there is another article on the same day Stop-Smoking Diary: Back And Forth Between E-Cig To Real Cig - Courant.com
This could be good news. I haven't had an anolog since I started vaping. So, I am happy that I am able to "scratch the itch" without really injesting noctine. That means I can just order nic levels to provide throat hit; without worrying about absorbing a toxic compound. Plus, No nic = no physical adiction.
On the other hand, I have seen plenty of posts on this forum by new vaporers who have gone a little overboard, and experiened side effects consistent with nic overdose: headaches, nausea, etc. So if nic is not being absorbed, what is causing these symptoms?

I replied to the article:
I smoked a pack a day for 38 years. I tried quitting cold turkey, tried patches, gum, hypnosis, everything but Chantix. None were effective for very long. Sooner or later, I visited the convenience store and purchased another $7.00 pack of smokes. Out of desperation, I bought a "personal vaporizer." I took one puff on my "PV," and threw most of a pack of cigarettes in the trash. That was on December 9, 2009. I have had no - none, zero - urges to light up a cigarette as the electronic version mimics the act of smoking to a tee, including nicotine delivery, minus the dangerous chemicals and combustion by-products of tobacco. I would suggest that, rather than rely solely on scientific studies (University of Virginia... isn't that the same state where Phillip Morris has its headquarters?), you talk to as many "vapers" as you can find. Their stories will be very similar to my own. As far as I'm concerned, I'm an ex-smoker and, as long as I have my "e-cigs," will remain one.

If it wouldn't deliver what smokers craved for, then it wouldn't be talked about at all.
e-cigs are a drug -new devices gives poor delivery of the drug smokers crave
