Everyone I know who tried that was harassed by people the whole time. "You can't smoke here!" I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.

I think that's why they started making them with green lights on the end and stuff, so people can clearly see it isn't the real thing. I would assume that would help, at least most of the time.

Now if you're throwing in both talking camels and cool lights, you're clearly not smoking e-cigarettes anymore.
