BILL: When I was a kid, the movies made smoking so glamorous. All action stopped while Humphrey Bogart struck a match --
DR. DAVE: -- and then paused over the first puff, as if he was pondering the meaning of truth, and how long was eternity.
BILL: What about those awkward teenage years when you wanted to look cool to the girls? Cigarettes gave you something to do with your hands.
DR. DAVE: But, Bill, I thought you never smoked?
BILL: Think of someone in a bar back in the Golden Age of Smoking -- a drink in one hand, a cigarette in the other. When I finally got old enough to light up, I couldn’t stand the taste or smell of tobacco. So I was easy to spot -- the one guy with a drink in each hand. What brings this to mind is that it looks like nicotine is about to make a comeback.
DR.DAVE: The so-called “electric cigarette”?
BILL: You've seen the reports? "The new healthy way to smoke," they say. They make puffing away sound like a month in Yosemite. You get your deadly daily dose of nicotine, but without any telltale odor.
DR. DAVE: Let me surprise you, Bill: I see a positive, therapeutic future for the electric cigarette. First of all, it doesn’t put out any smoke, tars or carcinogens. It delivers nicotine in an inhalable vapor. For readers who haven’t seen how the e-cigarette works, they can click here for one of the better descriptive video promos.
BILL: Great! I bet every kid reading us is already reaching for one of these fancy oral syringes filled with vaporized nicotine.
DR. DAVE: These are nicotine replacement products, similar to the decades of nicotine gum that preceded them. No teen I know is going to make sure they put the cigarette in an overnight charger, go through the headache of unscrewing and replacing cartridges. How many do you think would shell out $60-plus for the starter kit? If you want to see for yourself, click here for footage on charging and assembling your e-cigarette.
BILL: They have to be re-charged overnight? Doc, the kids I know define “instant gratification” as not fast enough. So you may be right -- I don’t think any 16-year-old is going to pay $60 to operate something that delivers its punch tomorrow.
DR. DAVE: But already addicted smokers -- struggling with breaking their habit by chewing nicotine gum -- are likely to find this a transition tool that works. Bill, I have no desire to be a shill for e-cigarettes. I am aware there’s a real controversy between the World Health Organization (cautious pessimism) and leaders in the non-smoking crusades such as Attorney David Sweanor or Dr Murray Laugesen (optimistic support). But we have to move people off tobacco products any way we can. In fact, we are rapidly moving towards adding FDA control to the ever-tightening restrictions on minors purchasing tobacco in any form. The newest of these electric vapor products actually focus on their tobacco replacement value. I am also glad to report that the U.S. government has blocked several of these products with spurious health claims from entering our country ...
BILL: So even if the e-cigarette delays someone from quitting, it’s like methadone maintenance for opiate addicts who can’t shake heroin? But you know, Dave, maybe it’s easy for me to be superior about a vice that never tempted me. I’m still not sold on helping people trade one addiction for another. I didn’t get off booze by smoking pot.
DR. DAVE: Bill, let’s look at the factual record. In 2007, the Chinese consumed 2 trillion cigarettes. In the first 11 months of last year, their tobacco sales were up 18 percent! The result was a health system overloaded with fatalities and weakened cardiopulmonary systems. Is it any wonder that China started and still leads the world in e-cigarette marketing? I see the column we are writing today as a step toward helping American smokers break their own deadly tobacco habit.
BILL: Like you always say, Doc, there is no wrong door into recovery.
