    FDA Would you still buy your favorite vape stuff if BT acquired those manufacturers?

    It's moot, I believe, as businesses not acquired by BT under the new regulations wouldn't survive to sell "my favorite vape stuff." That's the whole problem. If they were actually still selling my favorite stuff, yes, I guess I would, especially since all of the other small businesses would...

    Oh yeah. Still, he didn't. That was nice. I might need a nap at this point.

    I was about to suggest the same. No. Joke. I was feeling a bit less civil about it, but that's the jist. I'll go with the succinct version. And I do think it would behoove us at this point to have Kirsten's back - not because she's really vulnerable to this sort of idiocy, but because she...

    Yeah, that one's absolutely over the top thoroughly mind fookingly eyeball poppingly nose bleedingly bomb droppingly idiocracy confirmingly atrocious. I once had a schizophrenic patient who told me, "You know, sometimes I get so mad I EAT MY OWN TEETH." I know the feeling. Then I go have tea...

    Re diacetyl, it seems to me that 3 controversies are being confused and conflated here: 1: What we, as consumers, ought to do about diacetyl content in ecigs: (confront/publish names of offending vendors; personally boycott those vendors/avoid those products; count on vendors to be fixing this...

    "Will Shumlin end up signing a tax bill upping the price of e-cigarettes? $116,000 in tobacco cash says he won't. " 'Cept he didn't. Somebody's out $116,000. But yeah, it's not over yet, anywhere.

    FDA URGENT - US Senate HELP Committee - Thursday 2:30pm

    Hi crxss! I contacted Barbara, too. I like her a lot, have for decades - she's always been in the trenches for the little guy and locally responsive. Tough old dame. (Democrat here, not spoiling for a fight.) On ecigs, though, I dunno. She's not a fan of big biz, that's one thing - not going to...

    O wow. Really sorry to multiple post, but just coincidentally stumbled upon a perfect case in point. Shumlin is about as far left as any elected official can be. He's also apparently had some positive exposure to ecigs in his personal life. Read his comments on a recently concluded bill to...

    Ya. I know it's pretty obvious, but it mitigates the furious, claustraphobic gloom some to remember it. In my somewhat long lifetime I've seen so many desperately stubborn wrongs righted in this country (my Dad was gay, in the damnable fifties, so that's one of the most heartening ones for me...

    Just thinking this morning... What gives me heart in all of this is the very real possibility that the exponential growth of vaping will affect public opinion (especially the opinion of non-smokers) far more effectively than all of the Antz campaigns and FDA BS ever could. When I started back...

    Torr is that tiny fiefdom near Finland governed by a wise philosopher king who vapes, right?

    Disturbing

    The only people crazier than crazy people are psychiatrists. And politicians. And the rest of us. As a retired psychotherapist, I can state this with some authority. BTW, Nicotine dependence and withdrawal are listed and coded in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders...
