    Is Vape the same thing as smoke?

    I don't think anyone would consider vaping to be 100% "harmless". It's all a question of degree. Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor and a stimulant. Similar to caffeine in its effects, actually. There are those who would be probably better off not intaking nicotine. Just as there are those who...

    Is Vape the same thing as smoke?

    llmercll, sorry to have been so tough on you. But the dissemination of misinformation about vaping (most often by the rabid anti-tobacco at all costs - quit or die - groups) really gets to me, and I hate to see it happen here too. I'm quite familiar with that "more harm" thread - and that's...

    Is Vape the same thing as smoke?

    Burning causes a chemical change, via the mechanism of oxidation. That's why smoke contains literally thousands of chemicals, many highly toxic. The change from a liquid to gas is solely a change in state. No new chemicals are formed in the vaporization process. It seems you may have...

    Non Smoker == Troll

    Fixed that typo for you. Or maybe you don't understand the term "socialist"?

    I think I overdosed. What should I do now.

    LOL, Storm, I was just going to post similarly. The only other thing to say is that thegrindre can buy a gallon of USP PG for about the same price as buying a tiny bottle of zero nic eliquid. Makes no (financial) sense at all to buy zero nic to cut down with! Here's an example price, online...

    So we're a tobacco product. Now what?

    Correction: The show starts at 9:00 pm, not 7:00.

    Tacoma-Pierce County health official wants to ban electronic cigarettes in

    Yes, write. Yes, call. Yes, go. :laugh: Seriously, whatever you can do would be great, but all three things are needed.

    Tacoma-Pierce County health official wants to ban electronic cigarettes in

    Demarko, the feedback link is alive on the Tacoma-Pierce County website version of the news about the proposals (the news article linked to above is only a copy of that). Look at it here: Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department > Tobacco Regulations Since you never know who actually gets to...

    FDA - Further Amendments to General Regulations

    Elaine, Thad is right. This is simply the FDA implementing the provisions of the FSPTCA, as to all tobacco products deemed covered by the new law. And it is essentially just adding the term "tobacco products" to already exisiting regulations relating to other products covered by the FDCA. Any...

    American Cancer Society stance

    Thanks for being concerned enough to look into this before you donate, bwood. It is precisely ACS's ties with, and huge amounts of funding from, big pharma, that drives its official policy against ecigs (and the other groups too). They all actively push NRT use, and big pharma stands to lose...

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    Lest you doubt that I have in fact been pointing this out to people all along, I'll quote a post I made well over two years ago: That post was from here...

    American Cancer Society stance

    The ACS, together with the ALA, CFTFK, the AHA and other groups have formally taken the position of wanting to ban electronic cigarettes, starting quite some time ago. See this blog post of Dr. Siegel's, from July, 2009, as just one example: The Rest of the Story: Tobacco News Analysis and...

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    The point I was making had nothing at all to do with smoke inhalation side effects. It was, and is, that many "symptoms" people who recently started vaping have, and have posted wondering about for years here, are indeed known and well documented symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. Whether...

    LOL. "Miracle" stage at 2 1/2 years? And Aron chewed before trying vaping. You think he was wasn't getting nicotine from chew?

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    Avanna, I've been posting here for over two years, and can't even count the number of times I've posted urls and sent people to some of what sounds like the same or similar quit smoking sites that you must have found. (I post a lot less lately, now mainly sticking to the news and legislation...

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    Sorry, but no. Your words demonstrate that you don't. LOL @ the highlighted portion. You do know, don't you, that, even the most rabid anti in the universe would acknowledge and admit that it is the very act of combusting (the tobacco and flavorings and paper) that creates the worst of the...

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    Disingenuous? No, I don't think so. Flavoring is not a "major" ingredient. It is present in eliquid as a very small percentage of the whole. It is not even a necessary ingredient. And, even more importantly, in keeping with the whole crux of our disagreement - the issue as you framed it was...

    Vaping...More harm then good? For me yes...Im done!!!!!!

    Arrrgh! The thing is, shanagan, we do, really, know that ecigs are far, far safer than smoking cigarettes. Vapor contains not one substance that is not already found in cigarette smoke. And vapor fails to contain, literally, thousands upon thousands of the known and unknown subtances...

    So the FDA Banned Flavored cigarettes- YES or Perhaps Not So Fast

    Congress imposed the characterizing flavor ban on cigarettes. The FDA is just implementing it. See the FSPTCA, Section 901(a)(1)(A). http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_public_laws&docid=f:publ031.111.pdf (at page 25)
