As long as I’m poking the e-cig beast, read this

My TIE compatriots know that any time I write about e-cigs, I invite the wrath of a shockingly well organized twitter/email posse. Since I already caught their attention this morning, I thought I’d clean out my e-cig file in the interest of compressing the time they’re focused on me.

Simon Chapman has two must read posts up at the BMJ blog on e-cigs. The first, “Will vapers really “quit and (not) die?” is pretty much the most thorough review of the literature that I’ve seen. The second, “Why is Big Tobacco investing in e-cigarettes?” is thought-provoking and worthy of your consideration as well.

That is all.
