Extremely superficial research done by the author resulting in inaccurate conclusions. After 43 years of smoking 2-3 packs a day, I know full well the benefits of products such as E Cigs. No more coughing and wheezing, no longer out of breath. I tried all the NRT products, Zyban, herbal remedies, cold turkey, hypnosis (twice) and every other method that had come along the last 35 years or so. Just like Electricman, eventually, I fell off the wagon and was back smoking again (yes, I'm aware of your history and I just told you mine). I thought I had a personal problem until I found I was just like 95-98% of smokers that try to quit. That's the chances of relapsing after 20 months of quitting cigarettes.
However, here I am over 2 years from my first E Cig and I haven't taken a single drag, not one, in over a year and seven months. That's a lot more than Electricman can honestly state in his holier than thou statements.
To the author I'd just recommend reading the report that the FDA did their dog and pony show from. As opposed to indicating danger, they actually proved E Cigs to be much SAFER. Perhaps not SAFE, as Electricman seems to obsess about, but MUCH SAFER than smoking. Finally, to Electricman, I truly hope you make it this time if indeed you haven't smoked for awhile. I know it's been a difficult battle for you.
