> Why are you assuming the nicotine is solely to blame, and not for example the carbon monoxide?
Good point, thanks.
I will relax my assumption to "some of the cardiovascular disease is caused by nicotine," and admit that I don't have enough information to know what percentage of smoking deaths are attributable to just the nicotine.
Do you happen to know if they've figured this out?
Nicotine is one of my favorite drugs, which is why I personally keep a safe distance from it. E-cigarettes may be worse for you than a glass of water, but I am pretty happy about all the lives they're saving as they replace regular cigarettes.
