I thought about trying them, even though I havent smoked Ciggs in something like a Year...

Yeah, but, if I remember correctly, they werent on the market then, and were still controversial...

but, today, I randomly saw them for sale, and it seemingly got there under the radar, so to speak...

I just thought it was weird...

That's essentially what happened to the other thread, even though it was shown that these don't harm you.

Well, we all know that starting with something minor will lead us down the dark path of drugs and sex and other such debauchery. If Skallvia here starts with this so called 'anti-smoking aid' who know where he'll wind up? In some van in an alleyway 'hot-boxing' as the kids call it? Raping women (and quite possibly fair looking men) after snorting lines of pure Columbian blow? As you can see folks, my logic cannot be defeated, why it is more sound than any source material you could come up with.


Something like that right? :p

They're pure pish. Stick to Golden V and fine cigars to have a long, happy life.

I believe the USA's FDA was studying it since it was using basically concentrated nicotine in Liquid form. the results of that study however, wasn't posted here.

you might enjoy that article then. the author was talking about legally "smoking" in public with e-cigs.

....erm, that seems rather unlikely. I would assume they're like all other aids for quitting smoking, i.e. they get rid of the really nasty smoke-based effects, but it's not exactly like nicotine is good for you.

Anyway, anything that helps people quit smoking is good in my book. :)
