    Then it would be a ketchup product instead of a tobacco product! :w00t: Brilliant!

    Doctor Tipster article on e-cigs

    That's weird - when I go to the URL I see the article I meant to share. Not sure what's going on. I'd post a different link to the article but it's exclusive to their website. Edit: The article you're getting is a different article from the same website, from 2 years ago. Again, not sure...

    Doctor Tipster article on e-cigs

    My mom sent me an email with this article: doctortipster. com/24213-electronic-cigarettes-and-health.html My feelings on this article are mixed. On the one hand they are ripping apart the stupid arguments of the e-cig haters, while on the other hand they claim less research has been done...

    At what point is somebody really a non smoker?

    I've noticed smokers seem to be the most suspicious. They're the ones who are the most likely to argue with me about it, while my non-smoking friends usually just ignore my vaping. It does seem that smokers are feeling defensive. I'm not even saying anything, they're the ones who start about...

    anyone had someone fake cough at them? lol

    Good for you then! :thumb: I think I got the lecturing and people feeling sorry for me garbage mostly because of the way I look. I'm female and I look very young for my age - the last time I got yelled at for being "too young to smoke" I was in my mid-twenties! :facepalm: I think I got...

    Modder arrested for possessing "explosives" and "silencer"

    Yes, if it was discovered that his containers of an "unknown substance" that were confiscated were just barrels of PG and VG, they would look like buffoons for making such a big deal out of it. Same with the "silencer."

    Economics Professor on the FDA & Kid Gambit

    The issue I had with this statement in the article is the context and the way it was put. If you are going to say "nicotine is not healthy," given the present common belief that nicotine is dangerous you should either balance that by adding a more fleshed-out statement (i.e. "nicotine is...

    anyone had someone fake cough at them? lol

    I smoked for 18 years and only had that happen to me a few times. It's rare, but it happens, and when it does it's one of those things that sears into your memory because it is so unconscionably rude... What I got far more often was people who took it upon themselves to bother me on my...

    At what point is somebody really a non smoker?

    You're making a presumption :) I don't hold onto them because I need to. I keep them there so I know if I want to have one there's nothing stopping me. Since I don't want to, I don't have one :) I also have to wrestle with the fact that I can't justify giving them away, as I don't really...

    anyone had someone fake cough at them? lol

    Just cough back and say, "I'm allergic to the way you smell" ;) considering that people like this generally reek of hypocrisy and self-righteousness...

    At what point is somebody really a non smoker?

    I've had the same half-pack of smokes in my freezer for the last 8 months. Am I still a smoker if I don't smoke them? I say you're a non-smoker if you no longer smoke. Period. :)

    Economics Professor on the FDA & Kid Gambit

    I like this article overall. I have issue with this bit though: The American Medical Association may disagree. As AMA explains, e-cigarettes do not contain tobacco, the main reason regular cigarettes are so harmful. Moreover, vapor from e-cigarettes is much less toxic than secondhand tobacco...

    My Blood is boiling mad.

    This is very sad :( I do hope whatever legislation they draw up fails miserably. How many steps does legislation have to go through in India before it becomes law? What are the chances, do you think, that legislation like this will pass all the way through?

    Buffalo area speak up!

    Hi! I wanted to check and see if there are any other Buffalo-area people here, and if there are gatherings of vaping Buffalonians and whatnot, but... :tumble: Where is everybody?? :|

    FDA ACSH comment on FDA deeming

    This is a very, very well written comment! I keep wanting to quote some of it, but if I quoted everything I liked about it I would be quoting nearly the whole thing! Thank you ACSH! :thumbs:

    FDA Extremely well done (and not yet available) FDA comment

    Worse, many will tell you with a straight face while smoking, and drinking alcohol, and explaining why vaping is so bad for you... :confused: :facepalm:

    FDA Extremely well done (and not yet available) FDA comment

    I remember telling a friend once that I think maybe people are addicted to things because they get something they actually need from them, and I got an immediate, dismissive response of "I don't think so." I'll never forget that. This, of course, was coming from someone who's never been...

    This is Great Media

    I would like to add to that that everyone who has netflix should watch Pink Ribbons Inc. - it's interesting to see where all of those breast cancer funds are actually going. Case in point: the top two employees of the "nonprofit" Susan G. Komen foundation each make over $500,000 per year. Oh...
