E-CIGARETTES TAILOR MADE FOR NICOTINE ADDICTS OF THE 21ST CENTURY
In most western countries smoking has been outlawed in most public places and smokers have been made to feel more and more marginalised and discriminated against every time they light up a cigarette within passive smoke distance of another person. As well they might, because not only do cigarettes contain the most addictive substance on earth, Nicotine, but also a cocktail of toxic chemicals numbering in the hundreds which may as well be paint thinners or arsenic for all any nicotine addict would care. In Australia, anti-smoking laws has effectively made it illegal to smoke anywhere inside a building, what a pity that tens of thousands of australians continue to smoke inside their house, exposing their children to passive smoke and hence, increasing the chances greatly of their children contracting premature lung cancer at a young age. Nicotine is incredibly addictive stuff, although i think smokers are idiots for ignoring the health warnings about their dirty habit which are as plain as day, i still have mercy for them if they genuinely try to quit smoking, even if they fail to break free of nicotine addiction. Nicotine patches is considered to be one of the most effective ways to quit smoking, for smokers who feel that they cant give up nicotine but want to spare their lungs from the countless toxic chemicals contained in cigarettes, E-CIGARETTES, short for ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES, may be the 'revolutionary' answer. They work by using heat to vaporise plant glycerine, with or without nicotine added, to simulate the sensation, the experience, of smoking a real cigarette. The original concept for E-CIGARETTES has been around since the 1960`s, chinese pharmacist HON LIK created the modern day E-CIGARETTE design in 2003. They are much better for you than smoking a cigarette and the addition of nicotine is not mandatory to use one, but you have to wonder why even bother with them. Why not just go and buy some lolly cigarettes and imagine they're the real thing? I guess if E-CIGARETTES act as a mental apparatus to help people quit smoking cigarettes, the concept of sucking on an electronic device to get a fix isn't as silly as it may appear. At least E-CIGARETTES dont contain any of the toxic chemicals in cigarettes and dont produce any of the passive smoke that floats around inside so many houses.

I also think that e-cigarettes are for nicotine addicts in a stylish way. A lot of those who love to puff one are those who want a stylish bad habit.
