You say you weren't trying to be rude but then say they should stay home with their o2 tank. Nice

There are certainly a ton of legitimate allergies out there, but when it came to smoking, it seems that every other person claimed to be allergic to smoke. I wonder how these people ever left there homes back when smoking was allowed everywhere. The fact is that a majority of these folks aren't allergic, they are just annoyed.
This whole discussion is moot. In the very near future I am certain that vaping will be banned everywhere that smoking is, and maybe even some places where it isn't. I went to Vapefest DC this weekend. The entire first floor of the Hyatt was covered in a thick cloud of vapor. Many vapers are obsessed with producing big clouds. That's fine, it's part of the hobby, but even when smoking was allowed everywhere, cigars still weren't allowed in most establishments because of the massive amount of smoke and the strong, although pleasant, odor. I doubt any of us smoked cigarettes to produce thick clouds of smoke. When smoking was allowed everywhere, buildings installed ventilation systems and smokeaters to help get rid of the smoke. Those systems are now gone. When smoking was banned, many businesses fought it, but times have changed. We have seen many businesses beat the government in banning ecigs in their establishments.

Yep -- There are legitimate allergy sufferers, but also hypochondriacs. I would add that very sick people that suffer from breathing disorders usually know how to take care of themselves. If someone has an allergy to penicillin,(as I do) they usually have that on their records with their doctors. I only say that because if I had a more serious allergic reaction due to inhaled substances, I think I might wear a mask. Just saying, very nice post Ravensfan. Well put.
I still feel weird when vaping in public even in countries that are legal.
The great production of vapor attracts lots of attention.
I guess its all in the mind.
Or maybe i should use my KF instead, less vapor than my dripper.

I occasionally vape in public but using common sense and courteousness as a guideline. Of course I don't ever blow vapor in peoples faces, I don't excessively cloud up anywhere and I don't vape up an enclosed place with other people around. I usually just vape a little to get by being in a place (super market, mall) for a long time to get a little nic fix. Following these guidelines, which I think is just basically just being considerate to others in general, I have never been asked to stop vaping, to "put it out", or anything like that =)
After reading this entire thread, I need to clarify what I said earlier.
I will only vape in public indoor and outdoor spaces, but nowhere else. Just a personal rule for me.
I also have never blown vapor in another person's face, which seems less like a part of vaping than it does common sense. Just like I haven't gone up to someone in public to sneeze in their face, even while I have sneezed in public.
Yeah, even after it is banned, I will continue to vape everywhere. You can count on it.

I am counting on it. It will be a race between us to see who is arrested first!
Yes..I vape in public. As I also represent vapers everywhere I am always polite when I am asked about it. You never know..you could be talking to a relative of a state legislator or the legislator themself. I think as much positivity as possible can only help.
i vape in public all the time i am out. in shopping centers the indoor market and some shops and bars . i generally ask what their policy is on e cigs and some places allow it and some don't . its also allowed inside our bus station although the guy said it may be banned soon. we'll see.

I vape wherever cigarettes are aloud. I always have people ask me about it when they see it.

If vaping is outlawed, I guess we will be outlaws. In that case, I got first dibs on the forum name Josey Wells. hehe
I usually only vape outside the same I would if I were smoking a traditional cigarette. Although I have vaped occasionally in public places indoors and for some reason people still tend to give me dirty looks but Noone has actually confronted me about it yet. One time I was in a restaurant with a friend where he was smoking his ecig and another customer complained to him about not smoking while others were trying to eat, he tried to explain to this person that it is not the same as a traditional cigarette and apparently this angered them and they had the manager come over to tell my friend to stop. The person made such a big deal out of it the manager gave them a gift card to apologize for the inconvenience my friend had put them through!! Some people just don't get it and are so stuck on their own preconceived notions that they just don't want to.
