I voted.

It should be an easy win, except people that don't vape think e-cigs are dangerous.

Someone came up to me the other day and said "it that an e-cig?"...."they are more dangerous than smoking"...."it's got anti-freeze it in"... etc.

I asked him to explain what gave him the knowledge to question my choice to vape rather than smoke. I particularly enjoyed the moment when I explained I had made my own liquid and, as unlikely as it seems, I had not added anti-freeze from my garage into my mix.

Once we'd squared off and he'd acknowledged he knew nothing (as neither a vaper or smoker) I explained more fully about the anti-freeze and the Diethylene glycol story.

Actually, technically there is indeed anti-freeze in e-cigs; except for it is propylene glycol,
which is used is a non toxic alternative to ethylene glycol (as anti-freeze)...
