Received notice today that management will not allow smoking in the buildings and all outdoor areas of the property, effective Jan 1, 2011.
Here's their Definition of Smoking:
"The Term SMOKING means inhaling, exhaling, breathing or carrying any lighted tobacco product,
INCLUDING high-tech smoking devices commonly referred to as electronic cigarettes."
I suspect that the people who wrote the policy, don't even know what an electronic cigarette is or how it works.
I was expecting the No Smoking Rule and was planning on using E-cigs to get through it, but this really put a damper in my plans.
I'm interested in hearing what others have to say about this.
And can the REALLY prohibit the use of E-Cigs?

well I would do it anyways ....
1) THEY CAN NOT DICTATE WHEN IT POSES NO RISKS TO OTHERS OR PROPERTY
2) WHEN YOU PAY RENT YOU ARE THE OWNER FOR THE LENGTH OF THE TERM MONTH TO MONTH OR LEASE TERM AS LONG AS YOUR PAYING THE BILL
3) THIS STILL IS AMERICA EVEN IF THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION IS CONFUSED BY THAT CONCEPT
4) IT IS NOT SMOKE IT IS VAPOR , A MINIATURE FOG MACHINE AND UNTIL LARGER VERSIONS ARE OUTLAWED YOU HAVE A LEG TO STAND ON IN ANY COURT IN THE COUNTRY
