NY Post: E-cigarettes

here's a link to an article about a supplier in the Bronx. Also has a small tidbit from a Sabrina Alongi, who runs a smoking cessation program at the Jacobi Medical Center, who says she plans on looking into our devices.

Nice post, I'm starting to save everything I can find. I really hope they allow these to stay in the United States.

It was going fine, right up to this quote:

"In the long run, you're saving hundreds, thousands of dollars. And you don't have to pay these ridiculous taxes. It's a no-brainer."

Oooooo. That might attract some official attention to a matter needing "correction." This is the kind of quote that brings Big tobacco to ask the government to "level the playing field" of competition for smokers' dollars. And Big Government complies - in fairness.

Unfortunately, the article is full of lies so anybody who wants can ridicule it (and the writer, and the source) to death. Pure water, my **s! 1 cartridge equalling not the usual lie of 20, but full 30 fags! A few more wannabe businessmen in this field and we will have a cart that equals a whole carton of tobacco cigarettes. 3 carts per month, oh yeah!

I was a bit bothered with the tax-exempt status as well, TB.

As for all the misinformation...It would be nice, if for once, the media did some real research before they jumped on every "breaking story." That's just wishful thinking though...
