No matter what, watch sales of ecigs rocket after mass media coverage.
I've had numerous people at work today telling me about this program and Daybreak.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to become mass market ;-)

Amen. Let's get another 1,000,000 by 2016 and then see how the government views a ban.

They just showed a small segment of it on the lunchtime news. I would like to know who the vapers they were interviewing are? Not exactly a cross section of our community I'd say!

[markm]

The vast majority of vapers are not part of the vaping community, half of them
Don't even know the expression "vaping" or that they would be called "vapers"

Hopefully some of them will watch tonight and learn some important lessons.

It's like anything else that becomes a bit 'specialised', like the difference between rail users and train spotters or picture takers and photographers.

Oh I know. Two members of my family and one friend vape every day but never join in with community stuff. I think you met my daughter at a meet once Steve? She sees it as something she just does. Like smoking. In fact, she think we are all nuts!
Still, she will be grateful down the track when her mother saves her from running out of options.

I recognized Cliffy:

Only positive from him.

Don't recognise him, but I was coming back into the room and only caught a few seconds of faces.

Oh no, not another freebie ad' for Nicolites and Vapour-bull. ???

I hope the show is not detrimental and instead portrays Ecigs and vapers in a positive light. While the BBC Vapemeets might not have been successful as we wanted it to be, tonight's show has the opportunity to be a useful tool in our fight over the tools that are elected in the EU Parliament.

ITV 7.30 - 800.

Recording it but already told the Mrs the kids have to be in bed by then.
Got my (soon illegal) 24mg juice ready and many charged batteries... I think I might need them

Ecig on the local news. They already got the components the wrong way round d'oh

[kibbster]

Just watched the local ITV news and could that diagram of an e-cig be any more wrong.
wow lol

So which part is the "element" and cartridge and why is there no battery?
