Thanks Fuzzyman--that's good to know. If e-cigarettes lack the kind of nicotine kick that would satisfy a long-time smoker, then they're probably not worth my money.

: like smoke but it dissipates to nothing. And
: there area all kinds of flavors, vanilla,

: Puresmoker the best. Cheap and good quality.

: Google electronic cigarettes, search on

: Because there is nothing combustible and
: nothing to potentially harm other around
: you, you can smoke these things in bars,
: restaurants, at work, even on a plane. It
: truly can be a revolution.
