E-cigarettes are making tobacco obsolete. So why ban them? » The Spectator

[h=1]E-cigarettes are making tobacco obsolete. So why ban them?[/h]The left and the medical establishment ought to get behind this marvellous development

what in heaven’s name explains the fact that Dame Sally Davies, the government’s chief medical officer, when asked by the New Scientist in March what was the biggest health challenge we face in Britain, named three things, one of which was the electronic cigarette? That’s like criticising contraception because you prefer abstinence.
The NHS is confident that these devices are about 1,000 times less harmful than cigarettes. The government confirmed this figure in a parliamentary answer to me. It’s the tar in smoke that kills, not the nicotine — a substance that is about as harmful as caffeine.

I love the line I put in bold. It's perfect really and it says it all.
