    MRSA threat....Daily Mail

    Well, I don't get colds since vaping. Ever. There've been lots of reports in ECF over the years re that phenomenon. I've wondered a little about implications of that happy little perc, but you know, gift horse.

    FDA "I think they're crazy..."

    I still can't believe it almost 5 years later. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I did want to quit, very badly, and had very thoroughly psyched myself up, but I was SO weary of endless, humiliating, depressing effort/failure cycles that I secretly felt as much dread as excitement...

    "Did the FDA Just Hand the E-Cigarette Market to Big Tobacco?"

    I spotted that, too. Little um banana peel in an otherwise OK article.

    Huffington Post article basically declaring e-cigs to be harmful.

    That's true in virtually EVERY negative article I've read, from every source, including popular science sites - look at the poll at MSNBC! That's a HUGE majority, 87%. I'm not sure how long MSM can continue to ignore that. For the people, it's clearly not a partisan issue. Wish we could just put...

    Study of third hand nicotine from e-cigarette

    I don't fault the kid for producing a flawed science project. I fault those who exploited it. A question was raised that I think is important - would we grant credence to a valid study from a friendly source that showed significant levels of toxins in e-cigarettes? That's about integrity. I...

    Western Australia BAN the sale of all e-cig accessories and raid the house of Heavenlyvapour

    Over here fat politicians who only care about tax takes are busily legalizing previously nefarious aforementioned well known plant. Suddenly it's a medical cure, also an all-American pastime. Wonderful what the almighty dollar can do for the little people, ain't it?

    FDA About the Senatorial No-Shows at Harkins' Hearing . . .

    Are you talking about Ron or Rand? Rand does not support legalization of drugs: The Rand Paul/Ron Paul Disconnect on Drugs - Hit & Run : Reason.com I'm no fan of either of them, but at least Ron was consistent, and there's something to be said for his position. As for baby safety, the point...

    Baltimore, MD - Indoor Use Ban & retail placement

    Thanks! I'm on it. This being Baltimore (you watch The Wire, right?) I'd probably get more action if I addressed to the right person and dropped it on a park bench outside Central Booking and Intake Center.

    A Letter From My Congresswoman

    I have no rational reason for believing you're right in that last paragraph but it makes me happy. Anything is possible. And I like your attitude. :)

    FDA Zeller Actually Lets the Truth Slip Out - Let's Pay Attention

    It was only yesterday that BP was the giant threat and we were all going to be vaping prescription liquid that tasted like spit and toothpaste from things that resembled pink plastic tampon covers. For $60 a 'quit cycle'. No idea if BP still has a horse in this race because anything can...

    FDA About the Senatorial No-Shows at Harkins' Hearing . . .

    And look. Neither Rand Paul nor any Tea Party elected representative nor any elected liberal is going to very insistently back a product that they believe might be dangerous, or that's widely perceived to be unhealthy, any more than they're going to go all out to let you drive your baby around...

    FDA Post-hearing reactions?

    I'm not supporting member because the email with which I signed up years ago isn't the same as my PP email, and I'm not gonna mess with the latter because last time I did things got massively screwed up (for complicated reasons). Wld be delighted to use debit or send a check but that wasn't in...
