    U.S. Presidential Elections

    I'm assuming that your father had a computer, central heating and air, possibly video game systems and a cell phone. My father made sacrifices for myself and my siblings that I'm not prepared to make myself. Anyhoo, just let me know when you'd like me to send you my paycheck, let's just cut the...

    U.S. Presidential Elections

    And sorry, you did say republican a few times responding to me, so I took it as referring to me. I was also joking. Actually, I more closely align myself with democrats. I at least agree with them on social issues. Republicans strike me as hate-filled. Democrats, just a bit naive. Good...

    U.S. Presidential Elections

    Resorting to ad hominem already? I'm absolutely not a republican, and much prefer Obama. And it begins... I don't consider freedom from tyranny an extreme. Republicans have no right to even complain about socialism. Two reasons, one..most of them are pretty much the same damn thing, two being...

    U.S. Presidential Elections

    I'm not sure what you consider humane, but I was always under the impression that the point of the government was to protect our rights rather than infringe on them. I could be mistaken, however. I take issue with working four months as slave labor for my government. I take issue with them...

    U.S. Presidential Elections

    If by good decisions you mean 'not going to war' then I fully agree. You get to watch at least four years of our economy crash too, though. Both mainstream candidates were absolutely clueless when it came to liberty. Even more appalling economically. What I love is how sooo many people care who...

    I'm not sure how a democrat executive and legislature can be a good thing (or a similar republican setup), but! Kansas House District 92 -- 6 of 9 precincts reporting (67%) Nile Dillmore (i-D) 2,807 59% James Woomack (R) 1,748 37% Josiah Johnson (Lib) 215 5% Today was the first time I got...

    anyone know a way of testing the voltage on the batteries?

    Reverse the threads. I'm sure someone that already has the parts can tell you the thread size and pitch, though.

    A few people have, pile. It happens, at least, I've seen people talk about it in other threads, but with how well we stay on topic it may not be easy to find... Okay..I thought I had lost my temper the first time! Dear esmokey, Shut up, and get out. Seriously. You walked in uninvited...

    As it turns out, g/f was too intent on eating and I couldn't wait for her to finish. No video. This is awesome. I want to have Steve's babies. Super great service, thanks Steve. And Steve, more cards. Two isn't enough.

    esmokey: ..... If epuffer actually appreciates what you're doing here, they're ....... Don't just come in crapping on other supplier's threads. Everything e-cigarette, eh? Somehow, I just don't see how that means 'come on in and crap on other supplier's threads'. This is a thread to discuss...

    Where did you hear about esmoking?

    I just got here, I will probably get my first ecig tomorrow. For the life of me, I can't remember how I got here. Possibly a reference on SA forums or tv or ..something. I can say that more than six days ago (thanks for being so specific firefox) I googled 'electronic cigarette'. Followed that...

    Anyone had a go at making an atomiser?

    You're a good man. That was mostly over my head, sadly. Pulled the electronics book off the bookshelf and I'll read it until my pen gets here (hopefully Saturday).

    Anyone had a go at making an atomiser?

    That's a nice idea. What gauge nichrome did you buy, and how did you pick it? I'm a bit more on the mechanical side than electronic (something I plan on changing) so had problems finding the right wire. I do, however, have an atomizer idea I want to try.

    anyone know a way of testing the voltage on the batteries?

    I was planning on walking into Ace and grabbing a bunch of metric nuts until I found the right one. Simple and effective. I'm not sure if you're UK or US but I'm just hazarding a guess that they didn't use Imperial on the ecig, so if you're US, a machine shop might not have the plug gage for...
