Has anyone else noticed that after growing a mustache, little beads of water collect on the 'stache if you exhale your vapor through it?

Also, if you blow your vapor through a laser light it dissipates very quickly but if you blow it into a cold glass of beer it will hover there like a private ozone layer protecting your brew from UV rays for hours at a time until you blow it away.

Ever try that test?

Where you blow smoke through a tissue paper and see the brown crud that comes out of the cig?

I saw this video where they did the same thing with an e-cig's vapors and all it did was get wet. No brownness.

The vapors we exhale aren't 100% water vapor, but it's definitely not the same as the smoke from a ciggie.

Yeah I've done this on demand for several of my smoking friends. It's amazing how much gunk gets left on the paper from only a single cigarette exhale.

I think a lot of smokers look at the filter of a finished cigarette and take comfort that all that nasty stuff didn't get into their lungs. The test you suggested is a real eye opener for non-believers.

I remember my primary school science demonstration where the teacher actually built a rudimentary filter using a transparent PET bottle, some cotton wool and water to mimic drawing tobacco smoke into the lungs.

At least that made me not smoke throughout my primary school and secondary.

And this was back in the 1960s right? :D
