E cigarettes are the new smokeless electronic nicotine delivery system that more and more US smokers are becoming aware of. They were developed in China in 2004 but are now just getting on the radar of US smokers who can no longer smoke in many public places.

As a trained scientist I have always been open to the possibility that nicotine was not as bad for you as everyone thought.  I even had a statistics professor use smoking studies as an example where two causes of one effect were incorrectly lumped together as cause and effect.  He said that, for example, something else such as environment could be causing both smoking AND cancer.
My web research has shown that nicotine is a powerful anti-parasitic compound.  In the US mainstream medical professionals don’t believe that parasites are a problem, but many alternative practitioners believe that they are an overlooked cause of many diseases including cancer and heart disease.  While I am not saying this is true and am not a doctor, I am saying that I do keep an open mind as all scientists are trained to do.

Here are some e cigarettes for sale for cheap on Ebay.  I think I will try them myself.  I used to smoke when I was younger but gave them up for the smell.  Once in a long while, I still smoke on the porch but mostly I use nicotine gum if I need a boost.
