That break away is there for a reason, Education is everything. When it comes to bringing down a giant... or even competing with him, you have got to know your goods. From here on today, we got's to know our goods!
I have been hanging my head over my mothers candy making pots for the last 30 years. I have inhaled more that 5000 varieties of candy in the hot boil stage, I have been cooking in her kitchen for 3 decades, she cooked in hers for 7 decades, my grandmother cooked in hers for 9 decades, and my great grandmother cooked in hers for 10 decades. That's a combined 129 years of sniffing in the kitchen.129 years of inhaling food flavorings... that's right, my great grandmother was making food flavorings before I was a twinkle in my Daddy's eye. Although all three of them are gone now, not one of them lived less than 80 years. I trust my mother and her nose to this day, and I am going out of my way to study food flavoring intensely just to back it up.
Nicotine is a choice, have it or don't. My personal goal is to wean off it, you make your own goal. But vaping... that I will be doing long after the nicotine is out of my system.
I don't use PG, except what is in the food flavorings I use, but that is a choice too. I'm a VG girl. Maybe it's from years of working the lab. Right now I trust it more. When I know better... I do better. Period.I will defend to my death that ECIGS helped me quit smoking. I quit the day I got mine. I've never gone back. I never will.
I'm ready to challenge the giant. Bring it on Goliath, because you done messed with the wrong girl. I know the ins and outs. I know my way around the lab and I am ready to dance.
This is a serious issue and its going to take serious people to solve it. David threw a stone, times have changed... this isn't the play ground anymore. Sticks and stones my break your bones... but words will crush you. I have got a boulder full of words... educational ones. Scientifically advancing ones. It's time we started using them.
It is an out right crime to knowingly slowly poison people until they die. It's murder. Apparently it stops being called murder if you slap a label on it saying by the way...this will kill you, but we're going to make sure you are mighty addicted to it so that you want to slowly kill yourself of your own accord. In my books that's assisted suicide, it's slow, but it's to the point. I suppose that's why I am a scientist and not a lawyer...
I should have the right to kill myself any old way I chose. If I want to vape myself to death, if it can even muster up the toxicity to kill me...than so be it... stop interfering with it. The argument here for me is "Why is the tobacco company allowed to legally, factually and scientifically kill me but I am not allowed to inhale a chemical compound that they use in any other form but the one that pads their pocket?"
I hate to argue principles here...
Education is the only thing that can stop the giant. The real enemy is ignorance. That is solvable. We can educate ourselves. We can educate others. It doesn't have to be aggressive. It doesn't have to be with unsubstantiated claims of grandeur. They have to go through a process... and so do we. So let's get on that. If we want to affect change we have to be active in it. Let's know the concerns, and address them with solutions, not accusations.
We don't have to prove cigarettes kill people. That's proven. That is not what we are up-against. No one is actually asking us to prove that vaping doesn't kill people either, because they can not actually do that. I mean cars can kill people, but they are not removed from the road based on that assessment. Same goes for guns. It's all about their users. And regulating them so that they are used as safely as they can be.
Regulations may suck, they may make it a bit harder for the small guys, but they are important... so that some big guy can't get a legal license to kill us again. Because once that license is given, its damn near impossible to revoke it... Isn't that right Mr. Big Puff Tobacco Company. Accountability is everything. I can get behind that.
Medicines go through trials before they hit the market... machinery the same deal... let them test it. Ask them too. Be less afraid of the outcome and more afraid of what will happen if we don't start making them force us to be accountable. Don't you want to know what we are doing here?
I drink alcohol... I know the consequences and I chose to do it anyway. Most of the time within reason...some times not so much. I knew the consequences when I smoked... I am totally prepared for the consequences of vaping. I have stuck my tongue to more than one cold metaphorical metal pole in my life time, if I have to rip it off again I will. But I like my odds with this one. I can breathe deeper, walk farther, and taste things better since I stopped analogs.
I'm reading books, and working on ways to make the safest juices possible. As I know better... I do better and that is what it all Vapors down to!
