For those not familiar with 'The Motley Fool', they are involved in investments somehow. (Since I've never had money to invest, I don't know much about them. :) ) But they are well known and a link to this story was on Yahoo's main page.

This short article doesn't go into whether ecigs are good/bad, instead they focus on why 'Big Pharma' is opposed to them...

Link to article (left whole):

Electronic Cigarettes Have a Rich and Powerful Enemy

I especially like this...

"The force working against the introduction of e-cigs is big pharma. Now, this will come as no surprise to some: big pharma profits from treating disease, including diseases stemming from smoking; if there is less disease to treat, then their profits will fall, which is bad news for shareholders."
