Came across this article on the Motley Fool website.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity for British American Tobacco (BTI)

It talks a little bit about increased regulations regarding cigarettes around the world and then this...

However, while smoking tobacco may be a declining activity, a new and supposedly healthier variant could be the answer to the industry's prayers.

...with the company expecting approval for a new "tobacco inhalation device" (which is not an electronic cigarette) by the end of this year. Furthermore, BAT hopes the product will launch by the end of 2014 and will be the change that is needed to offer a viable long-term future for the industry.

Anybody have any idea what they're talking about and how it differs from an 'electronic cigarette'??

Isn't it AMAZING how we see such increased media exposure on e-cigs......once Big Tobacco gets THEIR hands in the cookie jar? Looks like they own some MAJOR shares of our beloved "news media" as well. ;)
