Jason, I have been inhaling steam at the first sign of a cold for many years....Sometimes it heads the cold off at the pass(the steam is supposed to limit the growth of the virus in the throat and the naso-pharynx) sometimes it doesn't......but I still do it.
Yes, there are chemicals in the e-cigs, but I thought that the resultant product of the heating of these was water vapour, but I am very happy to be corrected and educated if this is not so.
I still think that ultimately they will be safer than the chemicals in conventional cigarettes.....and that any efforts to reduce dependence on tobacco are to be applauded.
My father died a horrible death from lung cancer......and his last days stay with me in my memory....yes he was a smoker. He was given cigarettes as he embarked to fight in France in WWII....prior to that he had not smoked.
