Man if I had known about all this 3 years ago! I just purchased my first E cig....for my brother. I myself was a 1-1 1/2 pack a day smoker. I cold turkey'ed it just a few months shy of 3 years ago. I absolutely have to thank everyone that contributes to this forum. I have learned a lot and I know I will continue to learn from this great site. Keep up the great work everyone!! Also...I went with the Modern Vapor Sidesho for my brother.
