    FDA 2004 Ecig?

    I don't know about solarium, but Ruyan made e-cigarettes and e-cigars in 2004.

    Coil question

    You have a nautilus! So do I, those things flood a lot! It's got nothing to do with your coil, you should be able to use that coil right up until it starts to taste bad. Quick fix for gurgling nautilus - I'm going to try to describe this as best as I can: 1. Hold your tank horizontally...

    FDA What happens if/when…

    Would you be ok with children being allowed to drink liquor, drive cars, get tattoos and piercings, or join the military? Because that would be consistent with the argument you're putting forth. And with that, I am done feeding trolls for the day. :closedeyes: I feel strongly that the...

    Clive Bates - excellent summary of the Totally Wicked challenge to the EU Tobacco Directive

    Well, supposedly right now we have the option of contacting the FDA to tell them how we feel, which we've been doing.... not that any of that is actually going to stop these regulations from passing, but technically we have that option :facepalm: However - we also have the option to vote this...

    FDA What happens if/when…

    Wow... ok, I really feel the need to jump in the middle of this and say... That I do support banning sales to minors. I don't believe children have the intellectual capacity to make a wise choice about whether or not to consume nicotine, and so they shouldn't have free and easy access. Does...

    Clive Bates - excellent summary of the Totally Wicked challenge to the EU Tobacco Directive

    As for the U.S., my feeling is that it's difficult to make a legal challenge at this very moment, as there isn't anything finalized yet. In 2009 companies were able to make a claim against the FDA because the FDA was actively acting on its definition of e-cigs as a medical device. Right now...

    WHO Tobacco Treaty Would Make It Harder For Smokers To Quit

    I absolutely love this: What’s going on here? Is there any valid rationale for the global antipathy among the authorities to what seems to be a public health miracle in the making? It depends on your definition of rational. Many of those now working in “big tobacco control” (formerly known as...

    Two cool ads

    These are great! They are easily relatable by non-vapers, which I think is wonderful :D Only one problem - the second video was posted in February and has less than 400 views, and the first video has less than 200 :( we need to get people watching these!

    JAMA publishes Big Pharma funded junk science letter claiming tobacco use is associated with HPV infections

    OK, research scientists, repeat after me: Correlation does not imply causation, correlation does not imply causation... :glare:

    FDA Should I donate to help fund Dr. Michael Siegel's new study?

    Ok, I get it :) I will keep an eye on his posts, but with a skeptical mind. Trust must be earned, not freely given, and my trust, once revoked, is difficult to earn back. We shall see...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    I feel that you are seeing this difference of opinion as two sides of a fence, rather than recognizing that there is a large continuum of opinions inbetween. I don't think that pending regulations are nothing to worry about, nor do I think that potential health concerns are nothing to worry...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    I have to agree with Katya on this one. The health risks of potentially inhaling ceramic take precedence over our political war in my mind. We've been fighting this thing for like 6 years, and we're going to keep fighting for years to come. How long should we put our health concerns on hold...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    What you quoted was something I said specifically in rebuttal to another person's argument; which, I admit, was so poorly worded that it was drastically misinterpreted by two different people... I did not mean that we should do nothing - what I meant was the exact opposite, that we should...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    I realized waaaay after the fact that the way I worded it may lead to you misinterpreting it in this particular light... what I meant was that those ANTZy guys aren't going to be particularly swayed one way or another by what we do, their minds are already made up - therefore, we must do what we...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    My point earlier was that Glantz and friends are already aware, at least vaguely, of sub-ohming and possible issues with temperature, at least enough to start looking into it. Check out this quote, which I found in the middle of a long argument he was having with Clive Bates about a week ago...

    New study on exposure to 2nd hand vapor

    GSD is the standard deviation around the geometric mean. It is a bit different than taking the standard deviation around an ordinary mean, or "arithmetic mean", as we're used to: Geometric standard deviation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I must admit I've never seen this before either...

    New study on exposure to 2nd hand vapor

    It is not just official studies that they count as real data, it is studies that prove the points they want to make. Note all the quit smoking studies that have already been done on e-cigs, which are dismissed to the point where the FDA claims no studies have been done at all... Plus, all of...

    FDA Should I donate to help fund Dr. Michael Siegel's new study?

    Yes this is good news, but I still find it concerning that just two posts prior he called for major league baseball to ban snuff entirely, on the assumption that it causes mouth cancer. Incidences of mouth cancer in chewers are rare, and some say it is often due to them being prior smokers...

    New E-Cig Research-Vape Temperature--Crowd Funded- Dr Konstantinos Farsalinos

    Glantz is already riding this gravy train, a new study isn't going to make a difference there IMO. I don't think power is the only variable that influences the temperature. I think we will find that under most normal vaping conditions, even when sub-ohming, the temperature is still not high...

    LIst of Mods ~$100 or less and not a clone

    Wow I am glad I found this thread! :D I just began compiling a list of inexpensive mech mods I would like to buy. Now that I am more familiar with mods, I'd like to move away from clones and toward authentics if I can. I wanted to purchase an authentic originally, but when it seems like your...
