US needs to follow UK lead and come out saying vaping is 95-99% safer than smoking
That would be the endorsement that we need, for sure! I think endorsement from the UK far outweighs endorsement from the US, but a lot of folks don't get that. We are rated something like #40 down the list of countries for level of healthcare. Personally I like to hear from countries who are getting healthcare right!

Oh I get that a lot. Yeah, "He still smokes" and "It's pure nicotine" and "It's waaay more addictive than cigarettes" and "He's smoking antifreeze" and "He's smoking formaldehyde" and "My doctor said" blah, blah...and get this one "All of that vaping gets them high, that's why they do it instead of smoking". We have lots of work ahead of us huh?
Gets us HIGH? LOL! I have been in recovery for 14 years and all but a few of us who smoked now vape. I'm pretty sure none of us would be willing to give up our clean time for vaping! sheesh. I get to hear all about how "they" are finding out that e-cigs are harmful from the nurses I know. I ask them who "they" are and...silence. I would love to see one actual study backing up that claim. You would think nurses would be a little less willing to accept hearesay than that, you know? Ugh.

I get that some times, too. There's a little lady from Pakistan who shops at my hubby's store...she saw me vaping outside one night and keep saying she was going to call the police and tell them I was smoking drugs in front of Mr. Jim's store....mr. Jim would never allow that, Mr. Jim would be so upset....I kept laughing and offering my phone, said I had Mr. Jim on speed dial and maybe she should go in and get him while I called the police for her. She called me a few nasty names, I remained polite and cordial, even when I offered to throw my mod at her head if she didn't stop poking the air in front of my face.

You mean like Curry Chicken and naan bread?
Only if it was a few weeks old after sitting in the Texas heat. Something was about to make my eyes water and my stomach turn. I have a weird sense of smell, too...even as a smoker, I could detect more smells, now that I've quit, my sense of smell is even better. That's not always a good thing in 105 degree heat...lmaoooo

Hello fellow Texan, I knew there was something special about you red. I was born in Angleton. Lived in many towns in the Brazoria area, moved away from Tx for a while then got stationed in San Antonio. Spent another 12yrs.in Austin working for Micheal Dell and made the move to AR in '01. I know all about that nasty Tx heat, funky smells and all...lol
