To be fair, he's consistent - he believes that cigarettes should be banned outright - but even he was shocked when I pointed out how much of the NHS is funded by tobacco duties each year! <br /><br />I still contend that it is vital that every vaper knows these arguments and uses them as in my experience it is generally interested smokers who ask these questions and are more likely to try e-cigs on the recommendation of a happy vaper. The misinformation about them in the media is, IMHO criminal, especially when spiced up with some gross hypocrisy like the Daily Heil's recent efforts. I did fail quite miserably yesterday with a committed smoker though. The drains at work overflowed, and the engineer who came to jet them out had a cig hanging from the corner of his mouth almost constantly. He enquired about my E-cig and I suggested he might like to give them a try, to which he responded 'I'd rather my head be full of smoke than the smell of shit all day...' He had a very fair point...Starship Fighternoreply@blogger.com
