Not sure if this is the right place or not but just wanted to share an interesting experience..
So we all know that New Jersey just recently passed an indoor smoking ban that included the e-cig....
So I just got back from a weekend long trip to New Jersey. While we were there we had to go to Trenton so my fiance could get some copies of her birth certificate..So on Mon January 4th there we are trying to find the right place to go and it's a cold snap that day...finally track down the Helth dept. and they send us to another location for vital records..So, we get to where we're supposed to go and I decide I'm gonna hang out outside and vape and head to the little alcove shared with the other office in the building,where all the other smokers are huddled....So, I pull out one of my 510s and start to vape as I look up at the sign of whats in the building and lo and behold it's the AGs office...
Round about that time I get the usual question from one of the shivvering smokers "what's that thing?" so I go into the explaination "it's a pv commonly called an e-cig blah,blah, blah...here's how it works blah blah blah...and with the exception of this state's newly passed ban it doesn't violate most smoking bans since it's not actually burning anything, etc." So, then comes the "mind if I try it?" and "really it's included in our smoking ban? I've never even seen/heard of em before now", "where'd you get it flurry of questions"
So I'm carrying 3 510s on me (and some alcohol wipes I have in case anyone is super interested) so I wipe down the mouthpieces real quick and pass em round (one menthol, one regular tobacco, and one raspberries and cream). I prefered to err on the side of caution and not mention the specific name of the supplier I got mine from since they are in NJ and didn't want to create any undue hassle for them from the state by accident so just said "I ordered them over the internet"...
Bout then I realized that they had put out their cigs and were vaping and looking at the 510s all wide eyed and remarking how good they were (clean, and tasty I heard several times) and was asked about safety, cost, etc..told them that it wasn't FDA approved but that it was a very few chemicals that are known versus tar, CO, and about 4000 other chemicals and that I feel way healthier now and it got me to quit analogs with no effort and was way cheaper...
So 2 of them still couldn't believe that they were included in the new state ban and were intending to do some research of their own and talk to their boss about it...and all 6 of them expressed interest in getting one..
So I think I may have converted 6 people in the state AGs office and I foresee stealth vapin' in the bathroom there in the future...lol.
