For reasons I don't really understand my tobacco habit gradually tapered off and I no longer smoke anything, but I do miss it.
I think I have heard this from a couple of e-cigarette using colleagues: once the switched to e-cigarettes stopping became easier.
(One of them explained that he used weaker and weaker refills until it was basically just water. I guess at that point it just feels stupid.)

Sort of a nitpick but its mixed with vegetable glycerin or propylene glycol (or a mix of thw two), and not much if any water.

Thanks. I actually appreciate that you take the time to correct when I'm wrong.
Me too. I haven't had a cigarette in over a decade, but I remain hopeful that modern science will find a cure for cancer and other smoking-related diseases during my lifetime, so I can resume smoking again. This probably sounds nuts to non-smokers and I won't bother explaining it any further.
As an aside, I am one of many who tried e-cigarettes when they came out because they were very convenient, and ended up quitting. They were new and not banned anywhere yet, so I could 'smoke' even more. I never liked smoking indoors and do not like the stale tobacco smell so they were great.
