Ya know the parade was a metaphor, right?Not going to tell you anything you don't already know, mah friend. Who would you like to throw you this parade? BT, BP, the Government, the insurance industry?! They all stand to lose BILLIONS with a Capital B.
Outside of them, the world is split into two types, except for this tiny sliver of vapers. Smokers and nonsmokers. Smokers revile you. They know that what you are doing requires a LOT of research, dedication, commitment, some initial misery and cost.. What you are doing frightens them. They KNOW they should, so they look for EVERY little reason or myth to tell themselves they shouldn't.
Nonsmokers? To them, you ARE still a "smoker". Still a nicotine addict, and that is true to a small degree. But then, in their mind, nicotine is a BAD thing, and we know that it actually, is not only relatively benign, healthwise, compared to a LOT of other things like prescription meds, drinking, recreational drug use and I could go on and on, but there is mounting evidence to support that in some cases, it is beneficial. THEY don't want to hear that, because THEY aren't taking it.
But this lil slice of people here, we're parading EVERY day. So when you're feeling uncelebrated, you know where to come, now dont'cha.
Thanks for the words. I know all of that, but it still <Marvin the Martian> makes me very angry. </Marvin>
'Course, it don't help to find out that all of those fine folks that want to save my life/soul/health/sanity are really only in it to take my money.
Sad...
