Is this the "tech gone wrong" story of the day, or the greatest invention ever for e-cigarette users?

As far as I've been able to find, the vaporizing nicotine that e-cigs use don't cause cancer. It's everythings else in regular tobacco cigs that cause the worst health issues.

I'm a pharmacist and I agree. I just read a very interesting article on nicotine in this months Discover magazine. In short, nicotine itself has health benefits for certain populations (Parkinson's disease is a good example) and is not addictive. It's all the other shit in tobacco products that causes problems.
Note that I've never smoked and I am rabidly anti-tobacco. Still, the science is there for pure nicotine. This was all news to me but I checked it out and it seems legit to me.

Are you fucking serious? Did you just say that nicotine is NOT addictive? What fairy land are you a pharmacist in...because I don't actually believe for a second you are remotely associated with any regulated medical industry with that ridiculous comment.
Maybe not cancer, but it still damages your lung tissue and makes you susceptible to all those other lovely conditions that smokers have to deal with.

The thing is that pretty much no one has really studied the long term effects of using an electronic smokey thing to figure out what kind of naughty stuff they do in the long run. A lot of people are using them because they're cheaper and they claim they won't give you lung cancer, but it'd be nice to know if they'll do something else horribad so the people that are using them can be harassed endlessly about whatever medical condition they'll get afflicted with just like we superior non-addicted people are all haughty about now to the dinosaurs that still burn stuff and inhale the smoke. Seriously, I want something to hold over the e-smoker heads to make them feel like the inferior addicts that they are.

Nicotine is a highly physically addictive drug, any respectable pharmacist would know this and wouldn't base their professional opinion on an article in some magazine.
I am not debating that nicotine might have benefits treating certain diseases. There are many promising nicotine derived drugs in clinical trials now. But to say nicotine isn't addictive is 100% false.
Just wait for the crappy music to come on then mock them for liking avicii or something.

Oh, that's a good point. I'm off to go make an irrational mockery of someone with their mouth wrapped around the big hard shaft of an e-cig.
