    Korea-and so it starts.....e-Cigarettes Face Taxation

    In Ohio, a large pot of money that was awarded from a federal suit against the big tobacco companies, and intended for the financing of smoking cessation assistance and abstinance programs, was hijacked by the State government and used to keep the "ball rolling" for thier every-day general fund...

    Any Thought of Being a Supplier???

    Scottbee touched on the aspect that is avoided every time this subject is brought up. Your liability should be the over-riding thought when considering this move. Are you able to access a policy from an underwriter to cover your proposed business against the possibility of some kind of...

    Campaigning Idea

    I nominate BigJimW (a charicature with hat and e-cig) to be the "poster guy" for the opposite side (and/or maybe a breast pocket icon) of the "official" "great to vape !" or whatever t-shirt. He also deserves supporting votes on the association election. Who else among the "big vapers" (beside...

    Oprah Show

    I'm afraid that Mainer is right on the head with his post. Besides the fact that the "hostess" is undoubtably going to be governed by the sponsors and networks that supply the money to air that show, She is more likely to promote the "yet another evil tobacco product" drivel than provide more...

    Oprah Show

    Has anyone in this discussion done research as to the SPONSORS that spend money for advertising in/on/ and around this show? We all should know by now "It is the MONEY doing the talking". If any company that is involved in the production of any NRT product is spending ANY money to sponsor this...

    How many ml/day makes you a "heavy" vaper?

    My self imposed limit is to consume one 30ml bottle of JC traditional tobacco every two weeks. I started out at 24mg strength, and have tapered to 18mg. I will be de-tuning to a 11-15mg very soon. Somewhere in the area of 2 to 2-1/4 ml per day and I stay comfortable without being "married" to a...

    Campaigning Idea

    I brought this up several weeks ago (search it), and it received even less enthusiasm then, than what we are able to muster on this thread. In fact, the same day this thread showed up, I reintroduced the idea on "the other place" hours before this one made the boards, and beyond a minor cry of...

    Oprah Show

    Good outline, needs further proof reading i.e. "contact" is included twice in first line, "surly" at the end is in need of spelling check, "members of state" should be something like "members of our State legislatures" . Not trying to knock your efforts, but, constructive criticism is in order.

    My problem

    Get some reduced PG or VG only juice. Sounds like a SENSITIVITY to PG. And use some skin moisturizing lotion in the mean time. This is **NOT ** to be construed or viewed as medical advice.

    I'm done. No more vaping for me....

    I've been at this for about 4 months. I got myself a full complement of 510 equipment right off the bat. I was never satisfied with battery capacity -or- lifespan. It was routine to change/charge batteries a half-dozen times per day. Constantly pulling and feeding carts. I got a reasonable...

    DANGEROUS WARNING issued by Blu (may apply to other brands too)

    There are less dangerous ways to retire the Li ion batteries than what I see referred to here. Although imerrsing it in salt bath solution MIGHT render the cell as somewhat less dangerous, don't bet your house or your loved ones lives on it. My only other suggestions for the time being will...

    DANGEROUS WARNING issued by Blu (may apply to other brands too)

    To expect a malfunctioning device to be returned will put the carrier in a hazardous position. This is a liability that is not adequately addressed. Lithium ion batteries that malfunction can bring down an airplane, cause fires that incinerate vehicles. Cause fires that burn down buildings...

    I spotted your avatar and thought to drop a line. My 'grey is named "Alex". He has been my pal for about 7 years now. I got him as a "third hand" bird, and intend on keeping his company for the rest of my years. His "associate" is an eclectus by the name of "Lucky". I brought both of the parrots...

    Will anyone get the PCC right?

    After I got mine I found the thing ill conceived. Instead of screwing the battery in place, the charging circuit is commenced when the lid is closed, and if you leave the battery in place the PCC battery is drained for no effective purpose. Far too much wasted space internally, and the lid pivot...

    FDA exposed: susceptable to outside influence

    This article in the New York Times (9/25/09) exposes political influence that can guide the decision making goings on at the FDA. Although not e-cig related, it is a showcase for the corruption that can be insinuated on this supposedly safety-conscious agency by lawmakers and industry insiders...
