    One minute of your time...please

    I consider them not only NOT on our side, but not even on the side of fair & balanced, nor fact based writing. I saw that anything written by this Jamie Kopf sources directly from the ANTZ hotline. Just haven't gotten around to finding where & who to write to at CR calling this jamie goober...

    One minute of your time...please

    I included a number of links in the text portion of the survey - stuff like Clive Bates' take-down of the gateway / children lie, Burstyn's study (linked to the BMC published source), ECF's InfoZone access to the E-cigarette Summit presentations (everyone should view those!), and a couple of...

    MN Vapers obtained Poison control stats cited in MN legislative session.

    This very form of lying has been shredded a few times. Here is Dr. F's treatment: Misleading statements in the press about nicotine poisonings from e-cigarettes I'm looking now for Carl Phillips', and I think another was offered by Clive Bates, but those links aren't where I remember putting...

    iTaste MVP v2 Owners Group

    The MBV shippping department folks probably thought we were twins separated at birth! This is exactly what I spent my afternoon doing!... Playing with my new MVP with MBV cinnamon roll in one tank, and my MBV Casey's Custom Concoction blend of coffee/caramel & toasted marshmallow in another...

    What's Your Favorite "Tobacco" Flavor And Why?

    In regards to an upgrade such as you describe, and with a budget in mind... Many people recommend the iTaste products such as the vv3 or MVP I just received my MVP in today's vapemail, with the buy-decision driven by recommendations and lots of research. The vv3 can be found anywhere from...

    Is e-cigarette industry the biggest enemy of the e-cigarette today?

    You raise an excellent point about vendors that are aware and engaged are worthy of our business. Vendors need to make sure they are engaged, and then let us know! Put it on their facebook & home pages that they are actively working to move the industry forward against the attacks. I like...

    Local Bar

    A fellow Michiganderanian! The Missus I & I just hit the AA Recycle Re-use shop yesterday :D I agree with a lot of what you say, but also disagree a bit... It doesn't take a lot of former customers telling a business owner their policy (corporate or local) is costing them sales, before it gets...

    Bad luck.

    Sounds like your first week has demonstrated that vaping is ultimately going to work for you! And it sounds like you are willing to get through these early frustrations & problems. You have also found one of the keys to your ultimate success in finding that good local shop! Simply Red's...

    Do more smokers switch to ecigs, or begin smoking and vaping?

    I did the dual use at first, primarily because that's what I intended to do. My first kit was to satisfy my curiosity, and hopefully save a few $$ along the way. Over the course of the next 7-10 days, I was reaching for the pv more & more, until one day I'd only had 1/2 a cigarette. It...

    Great Paper - Achieving appropriate regulations for electronic cigarettes

    BuGlen - lots & lots to whole-heartedly agree with! Kent - - lots & lots to whole-heartedly agree with! Another of ECF's finest examples of intelligent exchange & conversation! Btw Kent, I've been wondering where you got my image for your avatar... That as a moment of anguish when I...

    Michigan Legislation

    Thanks! That's what I thought, but I never remember to check the shelves for NRT stuff when I'm at the stores.

    Is e-cigarette industry the biggest enemy of the e-cigarette today?

    Oh my heavens! Please tell me you are a cute little brunette / blond / redhead / brown or blue eyes female! Anyone who can quote Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations (and meets the last of the above requirements!) can make me swoon! :wub: (NEVER thought I'd use that smilie :shock: ) If on the...

    Michigan Legislation

    Since I never really paid attention to the NRT products before, I really don't know which ones are sold over-the-counter (OTC) now. But like VapieDan asks, do retailers of the OTC products impose an age requirement, and / or are there legally imposed age restrictions?

    Michigan Legislation

    My 'take' on the FDA vetted 'drug' angle is that as long as there's no therapeutic claims, the FDA can't touch 'em. Wasn't that the basis of the FDA's loss in Federal courts back in '09 when they banned e-cigs as unapproved medical devices? Which means as long as the manufacturer's don't make...

    Michigan Legislation

    Thank you Bill!! Not surprisingly, this is very confusing (by intent?) to the lay person. 2 bills with just enough difference to get the water good and muddy. We Michiganderanians need to get out act together, and draw attention to this. Looks like there's only 6 people from Michigan even...

    Great Paper - Achieving appropriate regulations for electronic cigarettes

    imHo, this needs to be out in General discussion forum. The traffic counts 'back here', and the eyeballs are a whole lot less, and this powerful piece needs better exposure. Just sayin'...

    Great Paper - Achieving appropriate regulations for electronic cigarettes

    OUTSTANDING!! Question: Noting Rickajho's bump, the question is how to get & keep this in front of the ECF masses' eyeballs and hopefully consciousness?? Where is the optimum place here at ECF for maximum exposure? My immediate thought is to include this in a hard-copy information binder...

    Hello from Michigan

    Actually... I got my ego-type starter kit from Wild Bills - 2 650 mah bats, 2 disposable clearos & the charger / wall plug, for $45. In hindsight, that's a pretty reasonable price-point for this type of hardware. The guys in Livonia were very knowledgeable, and were clearly gearing up...

    Hello from Michigan

    Thanks for link to the Michigan sub! I just posted some information about a new store, Vape Select, I had run into over in Garden City (32437 Ford Rd). Not many here on the westside of Detroit just yet. Summary: excellent hardware prices, 3 lines of juices including one made in Gaylord(!)...
