I vape everywhere, all day at work - when i stroll into shops, in fact i am never without the thing and nobody much notices. I vape in my car and if anything people are more curious than anything.
However i do not do it in places where smoking is banned because most people that see a cloud of anything will assume it is tobacco smoke. It is easy enough to explain what it is, but vaping in such areas shows a certain arrogance and lack of respect imo and since we are all vapers i think it is important that we show it in a good light, as reasonable, tolerant people - rather than 'it's not smoking so i'll do as i please!'

Yeah, at this point, new as vaping is, I do the same as when I was smoking. Like going to the store, vape my way to the door, stop a while if I want outside, but put it away when I go in.
I know some folks say it's a chance to educate but what bothers me are all the people that will think, "What a horse's rear" (he typed, euphamisizing) instead of, "That is not smoking, I wonder what it is?" and keep going by.
For every one person who may actually say something, dozens will just think you're a twerp who's breaking the rules.
Also, at this point in the game, I'm more likely to end up talking to smokers who have heard about "e-cigs" and are curious. So I ordered ECF cards and carry some everywhere now.
