I can understand them not wanting to put anything in their lungs but I disagree with the overt hostility and the always, always wanting to classify anyone or anything that they have no first hand knowledge of as disruptive, harmful to them and attacking.
I find it to be incredibly paranoid as if you{we} are personally trying to harm them.
So are you a proponent of the ecig industry harassing them lol? 
Just kidding of course!

I have no objections to them not addressing e-cigarettes. They are after all "recreational". You and I are in the know, understand the stance of the FDA, the court ruling, and the evidence that addresses the safety of these devices. But from the standpoint of a forum dealing with chronic illness, it would be akin to discussing having a beer with one's mates. It's unfortunate since COPD and e-cigarettes are a match made in heaven, and such a discussion of users who switch would provide useful data to the medical community. But again, this is akin to the utility of beer to someone with chronic pain, technically beneficial, but a bit of a faux paux to promote alcohol.
My ONLY complaint with Dave was Dave Mabo was the marginalization of users with COPD who also use e-cigarettes. But once he started claiming Nazi/McCarthy conspiracy (I'm not kidding), and how 100,000 people are happy with him as a moderator, any further communication seemed pointless. Either the gent believes there is a Nazi conspiracy to suppress his right to free speech, or it's hyperbole to gain sympathy. Either way, my only recourse was to toss the actual ruling by Judge Leon, and ask he get the actual lab report from the FDA under the FOiA. Beyond that I'll to my best to steer clear.
