    Class Action Against the FDA

    Of course not. Then the movie would be over too soon and people would want their money back. Besides, the best action and special effects are always saved to the end. The fans expect it. Seriously, though, it's all so clear what's going on. We must expose the truth to save millions of lives...

    Ruyan goes Prime Time....news story

    Did you ever consider the possibility that the makers of Nicotine Replacement Therapy products, with their 95% failure rate, actually serve Big Tobacco by recycling the smokers who failed to quit right back into the cigarette counter line? After getting their share of the profits, of course. I...

    Ruyan goes Prime Time....news story

    None of us are totally responsible for our addictions, be it nicotine or caffeine. There are many public relations, behavior modification, and advertising groups that specialize in convincing us to try their products. One of the most positive aspects of electronic cigarettes is that, without...

    Anybody quit analogs & vape?

    Hey, I watched your 8 part "Quick and Dirty" video series. Well done, and you really came across as sincere. I agree about the getting involved part and am getting writers cramp, but lost the smoker's cough. ;-) One of these days I might get a webcam and get up the nerve to do a video, but not...

    Anybody quit analogs & vape?

    Same here with the ppd (packs per day), and constant vaping. I think at some point, the newness will wear off, but it hasn't yet. Do you use a passthrough when you're around a computer? I also used it at work, but it died a few days ago and I ordered one of those sit-and-go pt's that is an...

    Class Action Against the FDA

    It's not all that surprising when you consider that the prohibition of the herb was at a time when it first threatened the established big corporate profits of the time, just like the electronic cigarettes do today. It was the industrial use that they were actually after, not so much the...

    Class Action Against the FDA

    Klasy, there's a really great shop here in Louisville that sells every kind of "hitter" you can think of. And it's perfectly legal because they include tobacco with every purchase. And I love the movie Demolition Man, but I'm still trying to figure out how the "three shells" worked. And "big...

    Class Action Against the FDA

    Thanks for the kind words. I get pretty worked up too. But then, I have been an activist writer since before Watergate. My last major research paper was published back in the early 90s, and was an expose of the little-known business and political relationships between US corporations and certain...

    Class Action Against the FDA

    The bottom line is that, as many vaping modders have proven, if we have to, we can go to Radio Shack, get the parts, and make our own personal vaporizers. I think that includes the atomizers, too (we may need to work on that). And we can easily make our own eJuice. They can make it harder, but...

    Wow ny!!!!

    Now that tobacco has a real source of competition, maybe the price will go down? I still wouldn't smoke analogs again. The thing to watch out for, besides the obvious eCig Ban outright, would be an inflated tax on eCigs and eJuice to make them more expensive, and comparable to cigarettes. Vape...

    My Reply to the FDA report on Electronic Cigarettes

    ***** The FDA Should Tell the Truth ***** July 4, 2010 Wrongful Death: Protecting the Profits of the “Nicotine Addiction Industry” The FDA report, according to experts, was not based on traditional scientific methodology, is not peer reviewed, and the methods used to obtain the data...

    Anybody else spending a ton of money? Dissatisfied?

    I've had second thoughts also, but just recently realized (with the help of the nice people in this forum, naturally) that a lot of the aggravation was self-induced. My first eCig was a SmokeStik (RN4081 model). The atomizers died quickly, so I switched to the Cartomizers, which also had a...

    1st attempt to vape in public place........

    I guess now the prohibitionists will have to invent an "eJuice analyzer" so that they can make sure what you're vaping is legal, and not some liquefied illegal substance. Especially in states that have legal "herbal" prescriptions.

    Any E-Cig users in Louisville, KY?

    I've been vaping for about 6 weeks in Louisville, and have yet to run into anyone else using them. If I can find some, maybe we can start a Users Group and meet once a month. It would be nice if we could find a coffee shop or someplace like that that is vaping-friendly. Any ideas?
