Article: "Harms of e-cigs re overstated relative to potential benefits..."

[rothenbj]

Don't forget that peanut butter, shrimp, eggs, milk and soy can be deadly without any contaminants at all, too. They claim food allergies kill up to 200 people in the U.S. every year. (Of course, lawn mowing kills even more people than food allergies.)

One of the benefits of becoming involved with E Cigs and snus for over three years is better understanding the principle of harm reduction. I've adopted that concept to lawn mowing. That's why mine looks more like a pasture than a lawn right now. However, I think I may risk hopping on the mower tomorrow.

Unfortunately, they once again call for FDA regulation of e-cigarettes as tobacco products, which if done via the "deeming" regulation in the FSPTCA (that FDA has stated its intent to propose) would ban the sale of nearly all e-cigarette products, and would otherwise decimate the industry.

Don't know why Siegel signed on to that article and followup letter.
