    UK Parliamentary Inquiry Challenges WHO's Anti-Vaping Stance

    OT, I know, but I've just gotta say I dig your Bladerunner profile address. Yukon hotel, I believe ;)

    Great that you both got your shots. Sad to hear about your dad, tho. If only things like cancer had to obey shutdowns and restrictions, too. I think trying to quit vaping with all that's going on in the world and your life is a tall order, but you'll get there, brother. Our province has had...

    Doing well, in spite of everything. Gave up the vape like a few others in here, so not affected by regs or clampdowns. Living on a small island, so not really affected by covid, either. Got some chooks and ducks, which you'd appreciate. How's that nature preserve near you doing? I remember...

    (sigh) I remember Dale from the old Catfish days in their height. He also helped me and my wife (via email) to get acquainted with the Scottsdale area when we got a place down there. How are you holding up, Doffy? Oz seems to be lowering the boom on vaping these days.

    Hey olefolks - good to hear from you again. Jan hasn't been by here for a few years, by now I think. I believe she had a personal issue in her family that required her full attention (not her own health). She was, indeed, a special Reonaut. The most charity-minded of us all. Always there...

    Sorry - late to this (been a busy, busy winter). Good on ya, Sloth! :thumbs: It's kinda like learning to ride a bicycle. You're head is full of thoughts and fears before you give it a go. The first furtive attempts feel strange... and then... then... then you just ride. Within 2 days it's...

    How would you like it? UPS or regular post? We've had some epic rains of late.

    You know, I thought of you when I was preparing to quit. You made it sound natural - unlike anything I ever heard or experienced with trying to quit smoking. I thought "if an OG vet can have it happen, I can, too". I also think it's great that you still pop in from time to time.

    Grazie mille, Signore :toast: Y'know - I was just paying forward what I got when I came to REOVille. Not to be maudlin, but the place was special back in the day. Still good people in here now, of course, but we all know there was a special energy back then. Very glad to have been of some...

    Sloth, my man :toast: Yeah, it just... happened. Sure, I was headed to visit some countries that come down hard on vaping, but getting ready for that was as simple as putting the mod and juice in a cupboard. After I came back I never once had to slap my hand for reaching to open that...

    Howdy folks. Soooo... it's been a year since I last vaped. After 30 years of smoking and 7 years of vaping, I guess this is me now. Just as surely as I'd reach for a .... with morning tea or pick up my mod while enjoying a nice scotch, I now just... don't. No impulses whatsoever. Never...

    Heh. Apparently, LA, San Franciso, Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver have the distinction of having the worst air quality in the world today. It's been like twilight in Mordor all day today. Tough on our chickens and ducks, too - they're going through twice as much water as usual.

    Wowsers, Robin - so good to hear you're back home and safe. We have your missing smoke, BTW :). It's been pea soup for days in these parts - all blowing in from CA, WA, and OR. Very eerie. Hope everyone's safe and sane in these trying times.

    Love the pic, Robin :thumbs:. Feels like a lovely place to shelter in (and I think you'd fit right in here on our island). I'd also have to agree that this mess has allowed me to really be present with the land around us. Morning walks through the forest are a wonder - daily changes as spring...

    Why thank you, sir. :toast: I try to pop in to see what I've missed. Like most of the world in these times, tho, it's pretty slow. I'm still off the vape, as well, so the need for ecf as a resource is quite skint. It's just the contact with peeps that keeps me coming back.

    Was enjoying a few Quarantinis earlier myself. Shoulda snapped a pic.

    Just wanted to shout out solidarity and support for all REOnauts as we deal with this COVID bother. For everyone sheltering in place, not being able to work and/or shuttering your business. For every first responder and medical care giver in harms way. We will get through this. Not just in...

    Good for you. Yes, we've had frost every morning but it's a small price to pay for the glorious sun we've been enjoying.

    No prob, Dan. You getting out in this wonderful weather? I'm, like, a month ahead of schedule on the yard work.
