I'm going to classes to earn my state pyrotechnician's license. The classes are held at a large display fireworks company that has a huge launch and burn range as well as stock warehouses. Last weekend at the first class I was vaping outside when one of the employees saw me. He said I needed to talk to "Ken" who was their lead tech about vaping. I asked how long he, the guy who told me that, had been vaping. He said he didn't but that Ken was a vapehead! Hmmm. I found Ken and talked with him. Ken switched one day and within a few months everybody else had too! I thought it had been all about safety but it turned out to be for the reason we all switched: Health. The classes are in Washington and they go up to Volcano regularly.
It really cracked me up when during breaks the vapers outnumbered the smokers 2 to 1. All the smokers asked lots of questions and had never seen these fancy robot cigarettes. I think we're going to have some new vapers soon...
Here's a post from my blog about the non-vape parts:
Blowing ..... Up For Fun And Profit
There's a bunch more pics and I put a lot of links within the text of the post so non-pyros can learn more about the fireworks they see at the big shows.
