    Vaping Hypocricy?

    I supplied evidence in my link. If you refuse to read or acknowledge the evidence, then that's your prerogative, but I am not obliged to accept your commitment not to educate yourself as a rebuttal of my arguments. You've said repeatedly now that you don't care enough about the issue to get...

    Vaping Hypocricy?

    How did we end up talking about pregnant women and smoking? As far as I can tell, this entire line of discussion was started by CJLaity's unsupportable speculation that exhaled vapor might contain nicotine, and that therefore it might pose a danger to pregnant women. Let us not demagogue the...

    Vaping Hypocricy?

    Surely you aren't suggesting that the nicotine exhaled by a vaper must remain in the ambient air in sufficient concentration for bystanders' lungs to absorb it? Why would you argue in the same breath that the primary user's absorption rate is inefficient, but on the other hand, that the...

    Vaping Hypocricy?

    Oh, I see. You're an optimist who understandably isn't up to date on what it is we're fighting, both in the United States and abroad. Don't worry; I didn't believe it at first either, but it turns out there's a whole industry full of human-sized leeches who have made it their job to restrict...

    Vaping Hypocricy?

    Interesting theory. I guess people in the USA are less entitled than Aussies on the subject of swearing in public then? Vic anti-swearing laws are #@$% Perhaps Aussies are also too in-your-face entitled about eating fattening foods? The obesity epidemic Or maybe, just maybe, you're blaming...

    Ban Coming to your City soon!!!

    Interesting: "**We’ve temporarily removed our Model Ordinance to Regulate Electronic Smoking Devices and its accompanying checklist from this page.** We will post new and improved versions of these documents very soon! " The last time I visited that website, the model ordinances...

    Perhaps one of her disgruntled customers is a local bus driver? ;) LOL, sorry, couldn't resist.

    Will DNA20/DNA30 mods render mech mods obsolete?

    Are you sure it was actually delivering 5 volts? PBusardo's chart According to the chart, the MVP won't go beyond 3.3 volts on a 1 ohm coil, which corresponds to 3.3 amps and ~10.9 watts. I wouldn't be too worried about blowing myself up, but if you tested the output in your experiment I'll...

    Things look grim.

    There's plenty of data to suggest that the average e-cig's ingredients are no more dangerous than any other every day item or activity. There's also conclusive evidence that second-hand vapor poses no risk whatsoever. 99% (+/-1%) safer than cigarettes isn't a small statement. Yes, there is...

    Things look grim.

    I know you don't mean for this to sound defeatist, but it does come off that way. Instead of opposing the anti-rational policies pushed forward by a corrupt tobacco control industry, we should run away from them and ultimately comply with their wishes? Don't get me wrong; it certainly...

    MsTs Bakery Updates

    Ayup. The delays aren't the crucial problem. The mistakes aren't even the crucial problem. It's the combination of the delays, the mistakes, and the lack of communication that pushes Ms T's behavior into unambiguously indefensible territory. Add a pinch of misleading website updates and you...

    Are our factory-made coils being wrapped too tightly?

    One wonders whether vendors could exist, if so much of the vaping community is comprised of vendors.

    What IS their problem????

    Heh, yep. Stuff like that's so outrageous that even mentioning it in polite company is likely to label you as a tinfoil-hat-wearing conspiracy theorist. But sadly, it's true. @Eddard - Thanks, man. Loving the avatar, by the way. :) EDIT: I just love this bit: "Currently, the...

    Well, I'm out a VTR

    Seconded. In my youth (when dinosaurs roamed the earth), I worked at UPS. And lemme tell you, that work isn't for the faint of heart. In my role as sort supervisor, it was my job to do a visual inspection of all of the conveyor belts in the facility (of which many were some 50 feet off the...

    What IS their problem????

    Right, which is why I said that the ignorance is well-intentioned by the time it filters down to the general public. The guy described in the OP is a bit of a special case because (at least if we take the OP's account at face value) he's just anti-anything-that's-convenient. I don't believe...

    What IS their problem????

    Anti-vaping is borne out of willful ignorance, on the part of the public-health industry, which is then filtered down to the public, in the form of well-intentioned ignorance -- in most cases, anyway. In the case of common busybodies like the man described in the OP, we can reasonably guess...

    What IS their problem????

    Content-free insults surely don't help anything, either in the short term or the long term. It's a forum thread, not a city poised on the brink of an apocalypse; the fact that the thread may be nearing its end doesn't give you license to riot. That is, unless you really are just hell-bent on...
