In my defense, I was exploring the extent at which i could use my PV. One of the most persuasive arguments in favor for switching to PVs was that you can "smoke" PVs anywhere. It is obvious that if a private business owner told you to stop vaping on their property that you should. It just ticks me off that the hostess had the nerve that after i explained to her that there is no burning substance inside of this device, and it is only the liquid that turns to vapor when it reaches ...cant remember the temp these things run at but that... that produces the clouds that you see, that she still told me it was the same as smoking. The manager was much more considerate as to what i was trying to do, and even commended me on my choice as being better than smoking, however he didnt want me to annoy the other customers. Although it was a friday, at a bar, and the clock hands were approaching 12, i understand that blowing plumes of smoke may make other customers uncomfortable. I also should have clarified in the original post that this incident occurred at the front desk not while i was sitting at the bar. However i believe the only way to increase awareness is to vape in public and not always behind closed doors. you SHOULD be commended for your choice to vape, not condemned just as smokers are. And as for vaping in front of kids, good, they should be seeing you vape, instead of watching you smoke. This way when theyre 16 and wanna look older they vape instead of smoke cigs. Also you can buy juice without nicotine so even if they want to vape and expel clouds they can do so without becoming addicted. I wish i had no nic juice when i was that age, that way i would have never been addicted to this horrible substance known as nicotine. I love to smoke and read/write, some people chew gum, but i smoke to concentrate. There are plenty of studies showing that chewing and mouth movement increases brain activity, but i digress. In the future restaurants will hand out PVs with flavored cartridges that compliment the meal you just ate, or the beer you just sipped, just watch. Of course this future will only happen if the tobacco companies dont get their dirty claws into some legislation that will ban PVs. =). but what are you doing to spread awareness of PVs???? vaping in the shadows and behind closed doors will get nothing changed. Sit ins and boycotts is how African American's enlightened the ignorant to the vast inequalities of America. Lets have a vape pride walk, sit in on business that are unaware of PVs and take America by storm!!
but i do agree with some posters, if you cant go an hour or two without vaping you may have a problem.
