    updated Indulgence

    So, what's happening here? I know my original order got clawed back from Customs, but I've seen no communication to let me know whether the updated one has been dispatched - just zero quantities on the web shop.

    E-cigarette use reduces cancer risk

    You are correct, yvilla. In effect, it's saying that 100% cessation of smoking tobacco is required in order to ameliorate its effects and that switching 100% to e-cigs has the same effect as quitting smoking altogether. This is a very good thing, and a very powerful argument for e-cigs.

    Exhaling in an employees face at walmart

    Whoah, there, back the bus up a few feet, eh?? Do we? Are we? Include me out of that little tirade, please. "We" will never win any battle by taking on the very people that "we" once were. Smokers, to pinch an Americanism, are simply vapers that have not yet converted. I'm happy to...

    This "They're not cigs" thing....

    Chances are that once e-liquid sales reach critical mass they'll be taxed fairly heavily anyway - they'll have to replace the income from ciggy taxes somehow, and I can't see them using booze as the scapegoat. Seems hypocritical to me, but what can you expect of any government?

    This "They're not cigs" thing....

    Well, I had the first meeting on the road to where you want to be yesterday, next one should be with the professors pitching for the study. The MHRA has already ruled that, as far as it's concerned, e-juice does not constitute a drug or NRT, as such, and therefore does not fall under its purview...

    This "They're not cigs" thing....

    Seems our colonial cousins are hell bent on calling electronic cigarettes anything but electronic cigarettes (as can be seen elsewhere on this system). I'm not sure what to make of it, frankly. I don't really see what the problem is - but, as I've alluded in another thread, I've had a few...

    Well, since we, in this politically correct world, now use Personal Electronic Nicotine Inhalation Systems, I've given up announcing what I'm sucking on - and instead Just siddoon for five minutes an a blaah (five minutes and a blow...)

    A Questioning Demeanor

    IF there is exhaled nicotine present (and it IS only an "if") it's no more harmful to those around you than the caffeine in a coffee. Had we all got our nicotine fixes in a nice mug, with a frothy top and choccy sprinkles on top, instead of in a cancer stick, nobody would conflate cigarettes...
