They hire young attractive hipsters. Dress them in very contemporary styles. And coach them to overact using the inhalers in a exaggerated cool fashion.
They hawk down young people and tell them, "Now you can smoke Everywhere."

WHAT FLUIDS ARE CONTAINED IN THESE E-CIGARETTES?
The fluid used in many e-cigarettes, commonly called “Ejuice” contain the following ingredients:
Propylene Glycol, which can cause gastrointestinal irritation.
Nicotine, the basic substance found in many cigarettes.
Tobacco essence, which does nothing to keep people from continuing their smoking habit.
Tetramethylpyrazine, which has been shown in lab tests to cause brain damage from prolonged exposure.
There are many other ingredients, some of which could be used as accelerants if exposed properly should one of these e-cigarettes break whilst charging. That plus using a rechargeable battery for a method of smoking cessation is just not a good way to get people to quit smoking.
SO SHOULD WE AVOID E-CIGARETTES?
Definitely!
Many manufacturers claim that e-cigarettes are similar in design to the widely available Nicotrol Inhaler. While this may be true, doctors prescribe Nicotrol Inhalers to patients who wish to quit smoking as a medically supported alternative.
Just take a look at the following points. You may now want to think twice before using an e-cigarette.
E-cigarettes haven’t been approved by the FDA for use as a tobacco / nicotine substitute.
E-cigarette manufacturers and promoters don’t offer any documented proof in closed testing by the FDA that they work as a viable form of tobacco cessation.
There’s no breakdown of exactly how the devices are supposed to help people quit smoking.
Another problem with e-cigarettes is that their use may actually violate many states’ non-smoking laws.
Whilst manufacturers of e-cigarettes claim that they release a harmless, non-toxic odor, the mere fact that they even look like cigarettes and emit toxic substances like a cigarette should be enough of a deterrent for potential consumers.
