Each of these these incidents - particularly the coach incident - brings them more publicity. For the moment, at least, ecig use is governed by market forces and so, in time, more pubs will allow their use, perhaps only in one room, so as to avoid conflict.JonathanBagleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-56615056428664030342012-07-24T08:25:24.807+01:002012-07-24T08:25:24.807+01:00I would have been very interested in the NSM ciggi...I would have been very interested in the NSM ciggies Tim, that is an area that research should have been expanded upon vastly! Any one with sense much surely realise that one of the main issues with cigarettes is the toxic man made chemicals added to tobacco in cigarettes which is a relativity modern addition, probably added round about when 'tailor made' ciggies started their lives!

The Tobacco Industry, a business with many consumers may not have been sqeaky clean, who is, but made genuine attempts to alleviate the threat on their business when it was discovered that cigarettes MAY damage the health of the user.
