    Need a real good Chocolate flavor (getting mom into vaping)

    It's hard to find a good chocolate IMHO, but if you or she can afford it, one of the things that helps replacing cigarettes is the fun of the flavor chase - it's distracting, it's defensible shopping, which is also fun, and the investment and sampling make it start to feel like a sort of hobby -...

    Cigarette like e-liquid ??

    See the thread below this one. :) And follow MrMann around, though there the interest might be fine tobacco flavor.

    You are so patient, Zoidman. Kudos.

    The curve of this conversation might imply that we should favor unflavored e-liquid. As an individual decision that's perfectly legit. I want to note really clearly that that shouldn't be confused with policy proposal. It's quite true that flavor is a large part of the appeal of e-cigs, and I...

    Can vapers help combat the epidemic of new mental health issue, nebulaphobia?

    One approved treatment for phobia is systematic desensitization. First we set them in a room with a picture of, say, PBusardo, blowing one of his less alarming plumes. Soft music, lovely sandwiches, kitten videos. Once they're comfortable with that, a Provari casually set on the coffee table...

    E-cigarettes and vaping ‘may cause lung cancer like normal cigarettes’

    I'd love to comment more on the whole psych-meds scam, but I can't be stopped if I start. Wrong forum. But if you need info or an ally, check out Peter Breggin. He's a great guy. He's also had death threats. (Hope this is not too OT in here.) But knee bone connects to the thigh bone...

    FDA Personally unworried about the regulations

    I like the serenity prayer. The courage to change what can be changed. I think that we might be able to at the very least significantly modify the blow here. We have some strong players on our side and some of the indifferent persons holding power may be swayable. Others may not have come out...

    E-cigarettes and vaping ‘may cause lung cancer like normal cigarettes’

    Ya, Andria. The whole mental health profession has been co-opted by Pharma (meds-driven 'diagnoses' and 'treatment'); at the psychiatric level especially it serves as an extra-legal social control. Fought that for my whole career, a losing battle for the large part, so far. Chantix is the least...

    If they'd been claiming zero diacetyl knowing that there were "traces", that would have been a problem. If they disclosed that then they were at least making some effort to honor the most important criterion for consumer choice, which is honesty. That they test at all is commendable - few do...

    Just to recap: Dr F: "By the way, we specifically mention that we examined only sweet flavors. Thus, when we report 74% of the sampels being positive for diacetyl and/or acetyl propionyl, we refer to sweet flavors only. We expect this to be smaller when you consider other types of flavors."...

    Please sign this! MoveOn is huge. Their petitions need serious numbers, though. Great catch, alkanae! Needs to be in media thread.

    IFLS writes article about e-cigs...

    Curious Steakjuice, you're in the right place. It takes some digging, but there are links to scholarly articles addressing every conceivable issue in ECF, and discussions with some very expert people. Use the search engine. Check out the research section at CASAA also, and Bill Godshall's...

    I think so, eethr. And at this point that'd be a mighty slim thread. This thread has had 16,528 views. If even a small percentile of those readers have understood the study and the results, and if some of those are concerned, and got the gist from the discussion of what to ask their own vendors...

    sonicdsl Yeah. But I'm skeptical about outcome, bin around too long - I mean, there are threads that very specifically ask that only certain things be posted and request no comments, like "3 favorite juices", and those, which have no controversy attached, still derail. Not sure I want to...

    The new theme is beautiful, much sleeker and cleaner, and kudos for that...but it reverts to the old one when I sign in, as noted up top. How do I comment in the new digs, or is that a work in progress?

    Because almost all vendors already have "statements of quality" on their website, and this study has shown that very many of these claims are false, whether because vendors are mistaken or because they're dishonest (I think often a little bit of both). Anyone can link anyone to a vendor site...
