I didn't see this before. Awesome. I have been having a hard time finding something to link to that explains a bit about my switch to e-cigs- My circle respects the NYT-
I was especially struck by the political point-
"The controversy is part of a long-running philosophical debate about public health policy, but with an odd role reversal. In the past, conservatives have leaned toward “abstinence only” policies for dealing with problems like teenage pregnancy and ...... addiction, while liberals have been open to “
harm reduction” strategies like encouraging birth control and dispensing methadone.
When it comes to nicotine, though, the abstinence forces tend to be more liberal, including Democratic officials at the state and national level who have been trying to stop the sale of e-cigarettes and ban their use in smoke-free places."
Hmmm...
