"An e-cigarette is, goes by many different names," said Dr. Thomas J. Glynn with the American Cancer Society. "It can be an e-pen, it can be a vape pen, but they all exist to do the same thing, which is to deliver vaporized nicotine to the user."

Dr. Glynn says the different names are a concern to public health experts.

"They're sort of a camouflage," Dr. Glynn said. "A lot of kids who would never want to be associated with a cigarette are perfectly happy to be associated with a vape pen. Youth as well as adults may be somewhat confused by it."

Experts say that confusion could mean more teens than previously thought are using nicotine vapor products.

A CDC survey found 10 percent of high school students said they had tried e-cigarettes in 2012, double the year before.

But the CDC says now "it is possible that the use of hookah pens, e-hookahs, vaporizers could lead us to underestimate the overall use of nicotine delivery devices."


May? Could? Possible? - Your usual ANTZ propaganda buzz words!

So now its the NAME that makes the results different than they expected? I call Bullshit! - 5150:)
