More Vaping, More Smoking: The Implausible Case Against E-Cigarettes - Reason.com

A nice op-ed on the NY Times article that came out the other day:
More Vaping, More Smoking: The Implausible Case Against E-Cigarettes - Hit & Run : Reason.com

My favorite quote from this piece:

Frieden has been known to simply make stuff up in his campaign against vaping, claiming without any evidence that "many kids are starting out with e-cigarettes and then going on to smoke conventional cigarettes." That he is now resorting to the precautionary principle—which my colleague Ron Bailey aptly sums up as "never do anything for the first time"—says a lot about the weakness of the case against e-cigarettes, which is essentially an emotional reaction against a product that looks too much like a long-reviled symbol of evil.
