is any company else selling safer 
I bet you had a reaction to propylene glycol. It's 80% of the liquid. If so, you won't find "safe" e-liquid. They all use it. If your reaction was to nicotine, however, just step down from high to medium or low or none.
If you buy e-Liquid, like from E-Cig, note that they offer what is called Quit Smoking liquid. It's different from the zero-nicotine variety of regular e-liquid. This Quit Smoking solution has garnered some fans. They like its taste better than any flavor of nicotine liquid and comment quite favorably on it in general. It's mostly herbs. If your throat hit doesn't improve, you might order a small bottle of Quit Smoking liquid to test.
Sorry TropicalBob,

This might depend on where you live, but Freesmoke, which I have called Feesmoke in other posts, is just WAY too expensive to order and ship to the U.S.
I thought gasoline was getting pricey until I saw what Feesmoke wants for liquid!

Hey TB. I checked over the "feesmoke" page and I'm not interested. But I am interested in finding another source for my e-liq if need be. I just ordered my first batch from e-cig...but I did that before I read their forum and found out that we're gonna be hard-pressed getting ANY liq from e-cig until after the Olympics. Not just the big bottles anymore.
I've got enough to last me a little while...but would like to know if there is another back-up for us besides e-cig, feesmoke and e-cig sales (since I am already ordering what I can from Jane already).

I wish I could point you to a fast, affordable source, but I can't. You've covered the commercial bases. I've not been unhappy, by the way, with the "slow" shipments from E-Cig. One took nine days, one took a month, and the most recent took two weeks. All cost $9 in shipping fees (order lots of cores and accessories at the same time).
I've done some do-it-yourself liquid made from cooking tobacco. It doesn't have the measured nicotine hit of commerical liquids, but serves to "cut" the commercial liquid and customize flavors. Use any type of tobacco -- pipe, cigarette, cigar -- and put about 10 grams in a small pot on low heat. Add a half-cup of water and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Strain off the tobacco through a coffee filter or cheesecake. Bingo! Instant tobacco flavor liquid. Mix this with "extra high nicotine" flavored E-Liquid and you'll get something less potent with a custom taste. See our "Combo Flavors" post. I like the commercial flue-cured tobacco, coffee, cherry, apple and menthol flavors. I add my own vanilla extract (see places to order under Combo Flavors). Next up will be "rum cigar" flavor, and Kahlua coffee flavor.
With what you have on hand, and what you can easily make, you should survive through the Olympics!

Let me add one other piece of information we've addressed here before:
After a month or so of e-smoking, I found I had spent cartridges all over the place. I'd refilled them several times and they were basically no longer useful. But they weren't empty. So, with tweezers, I pulled out the wool fillings and dropped them into a hypodermic syringe bought from E-Cig to fill empty cores. With cartridges in the syringe, I removed the needle and put the tip of the syringe into an empty 10ml bottle. Now, squeeze the syringe. Using just a few "waste" cartridges, I filled that 10ml bottle with liquid. And had lots of "used" cartridges left over for the next squeezing session.
This is much more efficient with the e-cigar cartridges, by the way. Or the even bigger e-pipe cartridges. But it works with all commercial cartridge wool.

I'm not sure if I wanna squeeze tobacco through a "cheesecake"...but cheesecake e-liq don't sound like a bad idea either! 
I do have plenty to make it through the olympics...but I think I'm going to try that with the "spent" cartridges. I probably got tons and don't even know it.

My typo -- even I don't think a cheesecake flavor would be good. Cheesecloth! Yes. You can tell how often I use one. I stopped at the coffee filter stage ..
