The US: High school kids smoking much less, using e-cigs much more, but e-cigs are still bad!

If you read the article linked, you will see that peeps are happy that smoking is down but unhappy that e-cig use is up. Why in God's name are these clowns not able to join the dots and conclude that the e-cigs are the solution and not the problem? Grrr.

Why in God's name are these clowns not able to join the dots and conclude that the e-cigs are the solution and not the problem?

Before starting a new thread, please make sure another thread hasn't already been started on that exact same news story.

I posted the following thread yesterday about CDC's report and press release (which generated the news article posted above)

There are many more news stories on the CDC's survey, so please post them on that original thread (instead of this one or instead of creating more threads).

Sorry about that Bill; although I read your post I didn't connect that it was part of the same family.
