So if they're saying now that the effect of vaping has not been studied, it looks like the effects of the ingredients in vaping have been extensively studied before and have been approved to be ingested by babies, children, and yes adults. I'm not a scientist, but I think that if they continue to spread fear it may come back to bite them in the pocket book as pg is being used throughout the medical world as a base for many medicines.

Levels of the Legacy of Cigarette Smoke
Each makes you more likely to smoke


First-Hand Smoke – Actual smoking
Second-hand Smoke – Actually being exposed to first-hand smoke
Third-Hand Smoke – Residue of secondhand smoke on clothing, furniture and walls
Fourth-Hand Smoke – Sight of real people smoking outdoors or seeing a film, photograph or painting of a person(s) smoking indoors
Fifth-Hand Smoke – Seeing a building knowing for sure that people are smoking inside
Sixth-Hand Smoke – Thinking that people just might be smoking in that building and thinking you might smell it
Seventh-Hand Smoke – Even though you looked in the window and the building is absolutely empty, completely quiet and the lights are off, you can smell something and you think it might be smoke
Eighth-Hand Smoke – Speaking to or thinking about a current smoker
Ninth-Hand Smoke – Speaking to or thinking about a person who used to smoke
Tenth-Hand Smoke – Thinking of or speaking to a deceased relative who used to smoke

I know that the one girl in the office I work at that it bothers her. She said she was getting bad head aces, and i know to much nic will do this. Which is cool so I just got into the wear house to Val...I'm still winning bc it's ACed?

There's no nicotine in the exhaled vapor (ClearStream Air study), so it must be something else. Could be a sweet odor or something, like how perfume bothers some people, or it could be psychological?

I liked the read you posted of the article on 3rd and 4th hand smoke- very refreshing!!
Btw, do you know if anyone is working on something to make the vapor invisible? Of course, the vapor is part of what I like and it also confirms that my PV is working....so maybe not such a good idea. Plus anything we add to get rid of the clouds will most likely be attacked as detrimental to our health as well...or to those around us- "Beware of e-cig users even if you don't see their smoke!!"
