Thanks for this info Ckc, I'm going to have to read it more fully when I've a bit more time later on - but first glance of the Mail article, has my blood boiling. >

[ckc]

Some great comments at the bottom, at least they put the better study conclusions first before all the spin.

[Scylla]

I didn't think that the Mail article was as negative and as ill-informed as some we've seen. And I reckon there's a good chance it will trigger a good few smokers' interest

I also think that Mail article will end up doing more good than harm

[Perpetua]

It was more the quote from that Senator who wants ecigs banned, rather than the actual Mail article itself I should probably clarify.

[Chrissie]

I agree Perpy, she obviously hasn't done that much research

Good to see Elaine Keller's quote though (Vocalek on ECF)

[Scylla]

I thought you were probably referring to some specific bit that had got your goat, Perpy

I read that article yesterday. I thought it was fair and it was good to see Elaine's comments. As for Rosenthal, she did some research and found out that what is in e-cigs is a mystery ?? She has got to be kidding !!!!!

[Chrissie]

I've added a comment plus clicked on the like facebook thingy (will never understand the workings of facebook fully). Also dugg it. Would be brilliant if others could do the same

Jerry, you don't have to be in the UK to add a comment

[Perpetua]

Thanks Chris, yours was excellent too - I'll steel myself for a Facebook foray and post tomorrow I think . . . takes time for me to gear myself up for that particular cyber place.

Had to chuckle at the poster who confused Linda Rosenthal with Linda Ronstadt and said she should stick to singing.

Jerry,i always believe in Karma or is it 'what you give out you recieve back 10 Fold'....she'll get it at some point.Maybe slamming the Chinese wasn't such a good idea.....Obama won't like that

Hi ckc, I know you from the ECF. You are quite active over there.

[ckc]

Hi jerry,nice to actually bump into you on a thread. I read more than i post....the convo has normally moved on before i reply and then i feel silly,i'd be more active if i could type faster.I guess (sorry Chrissie) ECF is my first home but this one has much nicer room service :-)
