And you are a little short on common sense also with that post.
Common sense tells the smart logical people of this world that vaping is not a Flame. It is a heating coil surrounded by a fluid that is vaporizes by the heat. IE NOT a Flame.
Take some gas and pore it into a open top can of some type and then throw a lit cigarette in it. The cigarette will be extinguished. Throw a lit match, a flame, in that can and it might ignite then again it might not.
Actually, if the coil is surrounded by fluid, you aren't going to get any vapor. The fluid is typically held by the wick running through the coil. I actually worry more about the arcing which happens in the switch. When the circuit is broken as the switch disengages, the charge wants to complete the circuit and will jump the gap (simplified explanation), this is what causes pitting on the contact surfaces.
If noticed that most all of the posts include statements like probably won't, the chances are next to zero, it could only happen if and the like. It's, once again, about the risk versus reward. If I had to vape right then or I would die then heck yeah, I'd vape away as the reward would out weigh the risk. That is not the case, the risk, however small, is much greater than the reward.
As far as "I do it all the time and nothing's ever happened", what if I said I crossed the road without looking and nothing happened? Yeah, I do it all the time. It may be true (or it may not) but it doesn't make it a good idea and it doesn't mean nothing bad could happen if you try it.
I'd also like to know when taking another persons perspective into account became weakness? I seem to get that idea from some of the statements here. I think choosing to modify your behavior or actions so as not to offend or scare others shows strength of character.
I'll shut up and go back to my corner now, thanks for putting up with my rambling.
