Awesome article, Kristin. You did a great job of setting the record straight on some misconceptions and in building a strong case for the use of e-cigs. Nice job —*I hope it gets read by many. I dugg it!
Now up to 33 Diggs. Still pretty poor participation.

I went back to look at comments on Associated Content and found a link to a "related" story: A Look at Nicotine Replacement Therapy, Page 2 of 2 - Associated Content - associatedcontent.com
I just couldn't resist leaving a comment there.

Actually a false statement out of the gate. For years the reduced harm tobacco advocates have been rightfully saying that STs (smokeless tobacco) are a legitimate reduced harm approach to smoking. Swedish style snus, nasal snuff, and dissolvables all fall into this category.
With a good clean source of nicotine, and all the above are better then e-cigs as far as quantity of nicotine goes, the whole ritual of smoking you so elegantly describe becomes very much a secondary issue for most people.
I'm not trying to belittle e-cigs, just trying to point out that it's just one of a number reduced harm approaches to smoking. Your article implies, by omission among other things, that e-cigs are the only legitimate reduced harm approach. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Well, it IS intended to be an educational article about PVs, not all smokeless alternatives.
I guess the users of those products are lucky that they are still considered tobacco products and aren't being banned for public use and vilified in the media as "just as bad as smoking" the way PVs are right now. I know Swedish snus is having issues right now, though.
I'm just trying to get PVs looked at as just as viable reduced harm products as those products you mention. We can't even seem to get it considered a reduced harm product.
Imagine if Snus, nasal snuff and dissolvables were suddenly being called "drug delivery devices?" Those products already enjoy a status that PVs don't, so I'm not as worried about getting the word out about them.
And I was also making a point about smoking cessation programs, which many people equate, unfairly, with tobacco cessation. Using those products, one is still a "tobacco user." I was comparing more with NRTs as smoking cessation.
A lot of people still equate snuff and mouth tobaccos with cancers - like mouth cancer.
