lets have a civil factual debate aboug E-Cigs

92. I'm posting this without reading the replies above.

My main concern with vaping is that the cigarette companies, anticipating the loss of revenue as smokers quit cigarettes, will begin to add substances to vaping nicotine designed to keep people hooked on it, just like they did with cigarettes. And while vapers may no longer be inhaling the by-products of combustion, (i.e. CO2, CO, tar, etc) they could be exposing themselves to the kinds of things that the tobacco companies have been putting in cigarettes for years. Things like ammonia (which enables the body to absorb nicotine faster, thereby becoming addicted more quickly), methane, strychnine, etc. These substances are toxic all by themselves.

So, while vapers may be able to convince themselves that there's no harm in nicotine itself (not a completely valid belief, BTW), it's hard to shrug off the harmful potential effects of strychnine, etc...
