From the original post:
"Then I took the first pull on that new way of life. It ended in a series of coughs. I tried again, more coughing. The day went on and I tried off and on all day. Still more coughing. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I thought I had a handle on the beginning steps, but this coughing is, well, different. I definitely feel like a noob all over again!
Beyond that, I've had only one analog smoke today! Once I get this coughing thing under control, life will be awesome!"
Coughing is still on topic.
