you'll still find em underground, the funny thing is people can sell bongs, pipes, stuff for crack, and a whole bunch of stuff, but something people actually use for "tobacco" they ban, funny stuff

exactly right Lezil...but what really kills me is one of the things that they continue to allow which falls under "and a whole bunch of stuff"...which are....cigarettes

i mean if that's not the height of hypocrisy then i don't know what is....analogs contain sooo much more bad stuff in them compared to e-cigs/PV's, yet they let those remain on the market (can you say, "we like getting our revenue/moolah from the super high tax on analog cigs"?)

im not saying they should ban analog cigs (i've been a customer for frigging ever)...im just saying how hypocritical to point the finger at e-cigs while allowing analogs to remain on the market...kind of makes u sick doesn't it

I got a friend across the road and his mrs onto them after I gave them one of mine to try, she's given up the cigs in favor of it and he's used it to cut down his number of cigs.
I've also got my best friend coming down to stay for a few days and have bought him an Ego and a Kaji mod and supplies to get him off cigs, he seems really keen to give them a go as he's given up cigs once but was driven back to them after a hell of a lot of stress in his life.

I have been vaping in my office and getting lots of questions about it. I have converted one of my coworkers, and I have given out quite a few of the disposable 510 kits from LiteCigUSA to coworkers to give to their friends and loved ones. So far, I have had two come back to me and ask for a recommendation for a longer lasting battery so they are getting Riva's on my next EM order.

Personally I dont set out to convert others. When friends ask about the e-cig in my hand I try to simply explain what it is, how it works, costs involved, where to buy, & known/unknown health issues (Everyone asks these questions anyway). I dont tell them they "must" or "should" start vaping. IMO just present facts & let them decide themselves.

I definitely did not set out to convert my friends. They just thought it was neat and are sick of smoking as well.
My mother on the other hand I am going well out of my way to buy her stuff, clean her atties, fill cartos... whatever it takes. I even switched from a 808 to a 510 so we would have interchangeable parts etc...call me selfish but if it takes a bit of strong arming and cajoling I will do it and feel no remorse.

I've gotten 1 for sure, 1 maybe, and one that might be interested. I've been vaping 2 weeks and haven't even THOUGHT about an analog. I started with a 510, but the charger blew up and I had to go buy an inexpensive 401. Honestly though, I do kinda like the 401.

Oh yeah, and I'm only vaping Tasty Vapor. I washed that cheap Chinese crap out before I EVER had to taste it.

I haven't actively tried to convert anyone. But I've got 2 people interested where I work, and a friend.

When they asked me about it, I didn't pitch it as "these will help you to quit smoking", I did the "well, you can smoke anywhere with these". After a few days of vaping, I found that cigarettes tasted like crap to me. Figured if the same thing happens with them, then that'll count as a conversion.

It's only been a week or so so far... maybe two? ... I'd have to look at my calender and I'm really lazy. But, 3'sh people in about 14 days?... not too shabby I guess.
