    New to vv and vw

    Welcome aboard Behemoth! It's all about the batteries my friend. Type Baditude in the search box above and read his blogs about battery selection and safety. I'm not much good with links, but someone will be along shortly I'm sure. :)

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    The outward appearance has nothing whatsoever to do with what's inside the package. The sooner that young people/children learn that, the better. And if the kid hasn't learned that basic lesson by the time they're in high school they're probably in for a life-time of difficulty regardless of...

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    The 'carrion crow' phrase comes from Chris Whitley's song "Dust Radio". It's worth the google. I didn't know him well, but the guy could definitely sing and play. The phrase seemed apt. ETA: I didn't completely dislike his worldview either. )

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    The fact is, they want vaping gone entirely. It doesn't fit into their worldview. Nothing is a small concession. Carrion crow nibbling at the edges until the whole organism succumbs and they can feast.

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    My neighbor's 5yo kid is fascinated by, (and attracted to) chainsaws and other power tools. Shiny, bright colors, cool noises, etc. The working solution to any potential problem in this case is close adult supervision of the little guy, not taking my tools away from me...

    Excellent blog post: How tobacco control failed us

    The harm they continue to do far exceeds the little bit of good they may have done in the past. And they don't care. Tobacco Control is a for-profit industry that works closely with both tobacco product manufacturers and government entities to maintain their own revenue stream. In the end, it's...

    Am I the only one?

    I like to tinker, so I have a few vape toys that allow me to do that. The workhorse that is always within arm's reach, however, is my Provari/Nautilus combo because it's rugged and absolutely dependable. I have enough other stuff to worry about during my work day.

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    That is the essence of "RULE" vs "GOVERNANCE". That's not how the US government is supposed to work.

    Why don't people want e-liquid labels changed?

    It's a contentious issue primarily because the government would like to treat everyone like they're children who don't know any better. A lot of folks are tired of that government attitude, in general, and see this as an opportunity to push back.

    FDA Interesting new docket opened and withdrawn

    Independent law-making by bureaucrats. I honestly don't know why we even bother with the ruse of having elections any more.

    I'm not a misogynist in any way, but did anyone not stop to think of the downside to 'equal rights'?
