could e-cigs have second hand smoke?

Accepted Answer

No, but other issues: The vapor in some e-cigs is mostly water vapor, but the propellant is an oil, propylene glycol, and there are often preservatives, stabilizers, flavorings and colorings as well.  None of this stuff has been analyzed, and the companies consider them trade secrets. The FDA has asked for the authority to require the ingredients, so they can be further studied. There are no "tars" which cause cancer.
