Like I said, it's a Forbes, I guess OP-ED on why the FDA seems hell bent on covering up the benefits of e-cigs, and the upcoming possibilities of the announcement they will be making. What I don't understand is why the media (ie, news media) is so hell bent on demonizing them as well.

I have a family member (a former smoker as well) who insists that any type of quit smoking aid that has you doing the "hand to mouth" thing constantly won't successfully make anyone quit smoking. He wasn't happy, and definitely didn't believe me, when I told him e-cigarettes help more people quit smoking than other remedies, specifically approved to do just that (and I believe at one time they were all prescription based).
