I love e-cigs.

Everytime you, I or anyone else walks up a public street using an e-cig, we are doing more to promote e-cigs than a hundred internet posts ever can.

Looks like they've taken the article down.

Thanks Gluggler.
Good to see you are on the ball
If we can manage to shut down these inaccurate articles it's good damage limitation.

Sigh... don't any journalists actually do any work anymore or just copy and paste!?

I wouldn't pay those lazy buggers if I was their editor.

Some good comments on this one

[kibbster]

Professor John Britton from the Royal College of Physicians’ Tobacco Advisory Group, is calling for regulation of e-cigarettes that would ensure a “guaranteed standard”.
Britton said the devices should be regulated in the UK to a degree to make sure there are reasonable levels of nicotine in them.

My liquids have a reasonable amount of nicotine in them, job done.
Thanks for caring that I'm getting enough nicotine though Dr.

Ah yes, but how does your story and this story relate to E-Lites?

I can't find the article.

However, I find it extraordinary that on one hand, they are printing an article about how women are more likely to die from fags these days than the 1960s,

and on the other, dismissing a harm-reducing alternative.
