>e-cigarettes don't really work well because its not about the nicotine. They do give you something to hold and put in your mouth, but the experience is extremely unsatisfying to a smoker. Former smoker here, the experience is totally satisfying. I smoked for a good ten years, and quit immediately the day I got my first e-cigarette. That was almost three years ago, and I haven't wanted to smoke real cigarettes for a second. I do have friends who've gone back to regular cigarettes, but (based strictly on casual observation) it's about a 50% rate of recidivism. And I see more and more people using them lately. Three years ago nobody knew what the hell they were, and lately I run into a surprising number of people who not only know what they are, but are excited to talk about their new battery mod.
