   E-cigs can never replace tobacco cigarettes in many ways. But the relationship   
   between the smoker and the essence of the tobacco (nicotine) can be duplicated   
   without smoke, so long as there's inhaling and exhaling. The taste can vary   
   from real tobacco    
   flavor to almost anything. The vapor has no smell. The level of nicotine can   
   be from 24 mg (equivalent to strong cigarette) to 0 mg.   
      
   I'm currently enjoying a nutty caramel flavor.   
      
   It will never be smoking. There is something very special about smoking. So,   
   now i will only save my smoking for special moments, and let everything else   
   be a mist, ha.    
      
   Which is fine by me because i'm also addicted to water.   
      
   Caffeine is an entirely different addiction. Most people i know have it, but i   
   don't have it. I like it, but i don't feel the need for it, or deprived if i   
   don't have it. When i have headaches, though, i drink coffee or take a   
   caffeine tablet in pill    
   form alongside my headache pill. When i need a kickstart, it's good too. Not   
   all addictive substances are necessarily unnecessary.
