An excellent lead article (with a great photo) on the front page of today's (Sunday's) City/Region section of the Pittsburgh Tribune Review, which is now western PA's largest newspaper.

vaping advocates praise smoking alternative in lounges, stores
Vaping advocates praise smoking alternative in lounges, stores | TribLIVE

The title and subtitle of the article in the Tribune Review's print edition was
"vaping advocates praise smoking alternative
Popularity of e-cigarettes booms"
The front page of the print edition's article also contained a much better photo (than the one shown on the internet) of an attractive woman vaping at Steel City Vapors (a local vape shop).

The article by Corrine Kennedy (who visited several vape shops in Pgh and my office) last week only contained a small error as she misrepresented me as saying that cigalikes taste like cigarettes (as I told her that premium vaporizers and e-liquid tasted better and cost less than cigalikes).

Great article. Wish we'd see more of these. This:

"“Some people are trying to quit; others are just interested. But we'll get people who have smoked for 25 or 30 years who come in and get a starter kit, and they'll come back six months later and haven't touched a cigarette,” he said."

.... really seems like from my own experience, others I know locally and throughout ECF, is more the norm than any other scenario.

Too bad there isn't an easy way to grab that stat.
