Let's see, without having stumbled into the ECF. Most likely I'd be back to smoking 30-40 RYOs a day, and my Blu would be collecting dust. Instead a friend is using it, (she actually likes it), and I'm vaping away with my ego tank. More important, even though vaping doesn't quite get me there yet, I know there are options. I know I can try cartomizers, VV, the huge variety of juices. I know that even if I never find the vaping only solution that works for me there are options like stonewall etc.
PVs have taken me from a smoker with no desire to quit, who bought a PV to get a nicotine fix where I couldn't smoke or didn't have time, to seeing a possible future where I don't inhale smoke everyday, and don't have to be miserable not to. Without the great community here, not a chance the PV could have done that alone.
