Study finds 'toxins' in vapor are exhaled in normal breath!

Well of course! vaping is fast becoming the next big money maker, and they don't control it, therefore they must destroy it!
Question is, did the scientists in this study use people who neither smoke or vape as a control group?
The only think I can find in secondhand vapor is PG, VG, or the "emissions" from the flavorings, which can affect chemically hypersensitive people. For most people, secondhand vapor poses no harm.

The article also stated that they took measurements of the outside air with no vapor and found the same 'toxins' (this was done in LA).
It is a good article, and it exposes the central fallacy (or, if you prefer, scientific malpractice) of every study that claims to find hazardous/deadly things in e-cig vapor. The authors of those studies never bother telling us 1) whether the amount of the hazardous/deadly thing was substantial enough to constitute a health concern, 2) whether similar amounts of the hazardous/deadly thing were already present in the ambient air, or 3) whether (particularly in the case of formaldehyde) trace amounts of the hazardous/deadly thing are a normal byproduct of human respiration.
Probably the next big study of the toxicity of vaping will be next to a Chinese chemical plant or Chernobyl...
Best not to give them any ideas, or else we'll be deluged with headlines line "Study Finds Radioactive Isotopes in E-Cig Vapor."
