From the article:

Will it help him stop smoking? "It might," Papanicolas said. "I know it will help me stop buying cigarettes."

There it is, the crux of the matter. This might help Papanicolas stop buying cigarettes. And the government tax collectors (politicians) go, "Quick, how can we ban these things but pretend we're just concerned about their health!"

I did not know that njoy Chairman was head of the ECA, so that is news to me:

"Jack Leadbeater, chief executive officer of njoy, a Scottsdale, Ariz., e-cigarette maker, is chairman of the E-Cigarette Association. The industry group includes many of those who sell the products, though it doesn't include Smoking Everywhere, the company whose kiosk is at Arundel Mills and other malls. He says his association's members make no claims that their device will help people quit smoking."

I must have missed that NJOY was in fact part of and a major player of ECA.--------Sun

Fair article and good to see ECA recognized and quoted. But this ...

"These e-cigarettes are at least 99.9 percent less deadly than cigarettes," he said. "Let's worry about the products that are actually killing people."

from Godshall is playing the same kind of unsubstantiated misinformation we shout about when opponents loosely toss around supposed "facts". Where's the study to back up that statement? Arrrrrrgh.
