| I find that I would rather use my ecig discretely, than have to explain it for the millionth time. My favorite technique is to blow the vapor into the neck of my shirt. I find this works best at movies. What do you do to keep your vaping discrete? |

(well almost all of it) It's good exercise for the lungs too LOL

| I'm with Berger on this one. Also, one of the vendors I use always includes some business cards in each order that explain how a pv works. It has a nice crossection diagram that shows all the parts and how they work. I just carry that in my wallet and show it to the people that can't grasp the concept. Of course my mods don't look anything like it, but they get the point... |

| I don't really stealth vape. If I'm not sure if I can, I ask. If they say that I cannot, I don't.

| LMAO!!!!! I have stealth vaped before, depending on where I am at and well, this new NoEgo really puts out the clouds. I have blown it down my shirt, in my purse, under tables, bent over to blow it under chairs. It is true, if you hold it for about 6 secs. decreases greatly the amount of vapor. |

| I'm in the same camp as Berger and Rhino.
The wife thinks I'm a troublemaker, especially when I vape in restaurants.
Occasionally a manager will start hanging out somewhere near my table watching me out of the corner of his eye, but once they realize it's not a cigarette they usually just walk off without saying a word.
I actually want people to ask about it, and people hardly ever do.
Most people avoid confrontations and/or are a little hesitant to approach strangers.
Every now and then I'll get a smoker who's inquisitive enough to ask, and then I'll go on for several minutes about cigarettes, carcinogens, flavors, mall kiosks, monthly costs, etc. and so on.
It normally ends with me giving them the website addy for a good starter kit, and me feeling like I've done a public service.
So no, I don't stealth vape.
(of course, if I'm asked not to vape, I'm courteous and respect their wishes.) |

| I don't normally "stealth vape" either. BUT, we do have one restaurant in town that asked me if I would be discreet because they just didn't want the hassle of explaining to those that complain, that I'm not smoking. I honor their wishes and am discreet. When I'm the only one there, they don't care and I vape clouds! I'm in there pretty often (now that I have wheels) so a lot of times I'm the only one.

| It does seem that more and more people recognize what your doing in public places..some will ask but most wont..occasionally people will make a remark to someone else that your smoking but those I will usually seek out nicely and explain that I'm not smoking and then they usually want to know all about it..then they ask about how and where to get one for a family member who smokes...I usually try to point them here too..

| The only place I really have to stealth vape is in schools. Other than that, I will vape in public discreetly. I don't go out of my way to hide it but I don't flaunt it either. |

| The taboo place I enjoy vapeing the most Is in the doctor's office .Not the waiting room, but the room they but you in before the Dr. comes in to see you. Especially when they leave the door open for all who are passing by to see.
It gives the nurses something to talk about.

| I am so used to stealth vaping that a ban on public use really does not bother me. |

| I find it to be a fine line, yes we love the fact that we can vape any where, but to not is to show some restraint and respect, non the less if no vapor comes out then no one knows .... ie at the fancy restaurants, at the store, where ever you dont need to draw attention. |

| I've always just let it out slowly. Sometimes if I am wearing a long sleeve, I'll exhale down my sleeve (while hiding my e-cig - if i'm at a restaurant or something) |
