Indirectly anyway. I'm an author with a publishing company that posts ads here. So thumbs up from an author & ex-smoker! I tried an e-cig April 2, 2012 & April 11, 2012 I quit a 19 year smoking habit! I admit I've smoked 1 cigarette since then & even though it was from the "number 1 selling brand in the US" it tasted HORRIBLE! Couldn't wait to get back to my e-cig!
