That is a fair assessment, I thankfully never picked up a smoking habit. If vaping got some folks to quit smoking then it did serve as an efficient off ramp. I’ve watched close relatives wither from lung cancer, wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Hope you’re in good health and spirits.

    So far so good, though we'll see how my own time smoking and vaping catches up to me in the end.

    And then you hear shit like living in a city is as bad for your lungs as smoking from all the car exhaust and figure "well at least I'm back down to just smoking risk instead of 2x smoking risk". I am (hopefully) relatively healthier than I was when I did smoke, though unfortunately older.

    Hope your health reflects your healthy choices well and that you haven't gotten old in the meantime while seeing how it goes. :)
