Put This Tobacco Company in Your Pipe and Smoke It (LO, MO, RAI, UVV)
Like a smoker going through nicotine withdrawal, the government's regulatory apparatus is getting shaky from not having a hand in this growing business. If tobacco companies try to market e-cigs as a smoking cessation aid -- something you'd think people would want -- the FDA could regulate them as a drug or drug-delivery device because they're being used for "therapeutic purposes." Which is why you have the ridiculous disclaimer on the blu ecig site stating that the electronic cigarettes "are not a smoking cessation product." You certainly don't want people to know the benefits!
