UJ .... with all respect that does put you in the worst position to criticise a smoker. A rather precarious one.
If I develop a smoking related disease I will have no one to blame but myself. As they say, too late to close the stable door after the horse has bolted.
Smoking has been proven to damage health. That is now scientific fact. As does air pollution and car exhaust.
The jury is still out on the true detrimental effects on health posed by vaping though most of the criticism directed toward vapers is based on odour and the secondhand dangers of vapour.
Really, I don't know why I bother getting involved in these threads ...ten years ago, smoking .... now, over vaping.
A great many people identify the two practices as one and the same and doubtless will not change their mind.
