New Zealand not sold on e-cigs

Yes, the Quit group said that, but they also said:

""The strength of e-cigarettes is that they provide nicotine without the thousands of damaging chemicals found in cigarettes and tobacco, which is certainly a good thing," said a spokesman."

And that's a good thing too.

 

In fact, I thought the overall tenor of the article was good enough to send it along to the following 5 recipients (the paper only allows you to send to five at a time):

Good find T.Bob

I agree Yvilla.

I particularly don't like the social engineering desires of the antis, however, these strong statements at least say it how it is for them and do not hide behind protecting the children, etc. IMO if there is ever to be a possibility of reason, straightforward statements, however unpopular, are absolutely necessary before any change can occur.

 

Thanks for the link TBob. The denormalization comment reveals the truth of the agenda against smoking which is that appearances are everything. If the Anti's were truly interested in health issues, the PV would be an acceptable alternative. Since the PV's output resembles smoke the argument against PV's becomes "a vicarious learning danger" that may hamper the efforts of tobacco control.

The argument seems weak to me! :>)
