Good thoughts. But if it's just nicotine plus flavors (an no additional drugs or

other additives) would it fall under the same kinda "badness" as coffee or energy drinks? Or worse because nicotine is worse? That's what I'm trying to understand is what vaping is and what it isn't with smoking removed from the equation and just what vaping is being evaluated by itself. Since I don't know I'm hoping others know better than me.

Plus, you can mistake their car for being on fire when they roll down the window and exhale.

Nicotine patches reduce deaths, but aren't branded as a cool, safe alternative.

This is the bad side. Half the kids in our kids' high school are vaping.

I put my mind through a thought process re: Vaping and drew a blank

The negatives are that you can put all sorts of things into the pen and inhale.

So it's not that vaping is bad but what you vape. So if it's just the candy

You've recognized one problem. You can vape lots of different things. I assume

Depends on what you vape, right?

After seeing what happened from cigarettes, aren't cans and mights enough?

I think that's where the problem in comparing vaping to smoking is.

Yes, vape away. Who doesn't like a good Malthusian tool?

Compare it to smoking, but without lung cancer...or maybe without...

Not sure if comparing to smoking is the best comparison

Basically i'm looking for "rational fear" vs. "irrational fear" regarding vaping
