This properly unanswered question is of concern to me:

| Quote: Is there any risk to others from e-cigarette vapour? It’s not clear until more studies are done (see ‘Are e-cigarettes safe?’). Research to date has not shown the vapour to be harmful – it largely consists of water. | |

The site also goes on with this:
[quote]What are the other concerns?
Because e-cigarettes can be smoked in public places such as bars, restaurants and public transport, some people feel they may be normalising what has come to be seen as an unacceptable activity.
Also, some argue that e-cigarettes (with their flavourings and clever marketing) are a ‘gateway to smoking’ for children and teenagers, encouraging them to smoke when they wouldn’t otherwise take up the habit.[quote]
Did anyone say that hey smell vile? There are a couple of places in town that are demonstrating these things, and the odour is horrible. If you can smell it, then more than just water is being exhaled, and as we don't fully know the health implications to those who are passive vapers, then we surely have to assume the worst.
