Electric cigarettes
I've been seeing these advertised more and more. Saw an ad online today with "testimonials".
The one said "It's the first and only cigarette I'll use"
All I could think is-- that's just sad and dumbass.

Re: Electric cigarettes
My daughter said that they make cigarettes that are regular except that they light up when you take a drag. It reminds me of the light up sneakers my kids had when they were little. How can they say they aren't targeting young kids?

Re: Electric cigarettes
These do contain nicotine, so ya don't gain much. If they had a nicotine substitute, I'd be a lot more interested in 'em.
Of course, I guess that not inhaling tar would be a plus.

the cig lighting up on the end is just for simulation of smoking a real cigarette,plus it tells you by blinking if you are useing it to much and when the battery needs recharging.

Not all cigs contain all those same nasty chemicals. There ARE some that are tobacco and paper. Of course, with FSC there's a few more chemicals.

Re: Electric cigarettes
Did some checking into these. Seems the ones made here by USA Cig use a water and polypropylene mixture along with a small amount of nicotine to make the smoking sensation.
Just what i want to do--Inhale anti-freeze.

Yes this is true,they have propylene glycol in them,so do many normal items in our home,,toothpaste and underarm deoderant for starts.Also proplyene glycol is the safe antifreeze.You can drink or eat it with out getting sick.
They use it in rv,s and solar hot water heating systems,so if it does mix with your drinking water it won't harm you.
