Never Smoke In Your Eyes

I myslef am not a smoker and never have been (I don't plan on ever being one either). But this idea is pretty smart, a smokeless cigarette. Something out of a futuristic sci-fi film? Nope, a clear reality now. The E-cig, Aeros Smokeless Cigarettes, and the Smart Fixx Smokeless Electric Cigarettes, are among the most well-known, but there are other brands out there. However, all of these cigarettes have the same similar concept. They are already pretty popular Britain, California's Soho, big cities, and in trendy nightclubs across the states. These are pretty great for smokers because now they don't have to go outside to smoke or worry about the dangers of second-hand smoke to the environment or those around them.
These innovative new cigarettes and cigars are approximately 6 inches long and run on a lithium battery-powered atomiser to create harmless vapors that simulate smoke as the end of the cigarette lights up blue or red with each suck. The smoker gets a strong kick of nicotine from the nico-filter cartridge without the dangers of cancer causing tars and other toxins like in traditional cigarettes. They are a little more pricey than your traditional cigs though. The prices range anywhere from $40-$100 per cigarette or per pack (depending on how many a person chooses to buy).
I do feel that they are well worth the investment for smokers. They are not physically harmful to the smoker or anyone else, they are environmentally friendly, and they still offer a nicotine fix. A cigarette that satisfies nicotine cravings without polluting or killing you or anyone else? What more could a considerate, environmentally conscientious smoker of the 21st century ask for?
