    Are we going to win this war?

    This is a genius idea. :)

    Are we going to win this war?

    This makes sense to me. What I see happening is what happened in so many areas - that is, ginormous corporate interests see a potential source of profit, and try mightily to coopt the vitality of pioneers. They end up cheapening and mass producing the original spirit of the thing, but generate...

    Who still uses SS mesh ?

    I've switched to cotton too. Up until fairly recently I was using an upright mesh/cotton combo, but it was such a pain I finally said to hell with it, and figured out a dripper-style horizontal coil with all cotton. It's tastier, less fiddly, and produces richer, creamier vapor than the "real...

    Most overrated E-Juice?

    Whatever happens to be ultra-fashionable at any given point is the most overrated, I'd say. I remember when all you ever heard about was Alien Visions. Then it was Copper Creek, then Heather's, then Allusion, then Nicoticket; now I guess it's Five Pawns . . . well. None of those juices could...

    The Drip Tips Of Drip Tips

    Yet even serving food on standard brass dishes is considered unsafe. Yes, serving food - never mind actually putting said dishes in your mouth. Hey, your magic process may be 100% fantastic. I haven't the faintest idea. What I object to is your snarky remark about anti-brass-"hysteria," which...

    Drippers

    Yep. It's all about taste. :) Before RDAs I found dripping too much of a pain to do often, but now it's my main method of vaping. And with the larger, wider atties you get larger decks and juice wells, which means they actually hold quite a bit of liquid - some nearly as much as a carto...

    Boba's Bounty what is your take

    I'm with you, Nathan. I thought it tasted like stale Raisin Bran.

    The Drip Tips Of Drip Tips

    Why on earth should you apologize? I'm sure 99% of the population has no metallurgical knowledge. Advising people to buy potentially toxic products, then treat them by some medieval process advocated by a stranger on the interwebz, is completely ridiculous. You're the one making sense, Cloud...

    The Shopping Experience: Great Websites

    No, I'm not planning to make a site; I'm just very much interested in this kind of stuff. :) Whenever I visit a commercial site of any kind, I always notice the overall aesthetic first, and then wonder what sort of person this particular look was meant to attract. If this is some huge...

    Mechanical Mods

    Hold on, Slingshot - I think the word purity is perfect, and adds quite a lot. That's a great way to express this particular preference, and - if you don't mind - I'm going to use exactly that word next time somebody asks. :)

    Mechanical Mods

    I have three good quality regulated mods, and three cheap Segelei mechanicals. I bought my first mechanical solely to build coils on, but soon fell into tinkering and modding for the fun of it. I'm the do-it-yourself type, and like the hands-on flexibility of RBA/RDAs and mechanicals better...

    Why Do People Buy Cheap Junk???

    Exactly. There are so many truly awesome pieces of gear around now, at so many price levels, that the whole "status" thing need never come into it. I genuinely believe that saving up for quality equipment saves money, time and frustration in the long run. That has nothing to do with showing...

    Why Do People Buy Cheap Junk???

    Oh, I don't know. I think people end up spending more when they buy cheap junk - in vaping as in so many things. I know I did. And the less money you have, the less you can afford to throw it away. I didn't see the OP as judgmental, really - more like exasperated at the amount of...

    Why Do People Buy Cheap Junk???

    Oh, please, God, no. Not another good topic turned into a Provari War. :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm: There just aren't enough facepalms in the world to describe how completely uninteresting this endless argument is to the rest of us.
