    Vape in Public

    Whew... long time since I've posted. I remember a thread a couple years back that was advocating that we not vape openly. I made many arguments against that tactic in that thread. I'm glad to see the general consensus on ECF has changed. I have never hidden my vaping. So much so, that most of...

    Dropped an E-mail on Leland Conway @ 630 WLAP AM

    Haven't heard back from the show yet, but the perspective of a small business owner/supplier could only be a good thing, IMO. I'll drop you a PM if I hear anything back.

    KENTUCKY: Statwide Bill Proposed to Ban Smoking and Vaping

    I have never believed BT was our core adversary. They want to see if this becomes a legitimized market, because I guarantee you they've been doing R&D on their own version. BP funds a lot of anti's, particularly the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation. This is certainly the case for Ellen Hahn...

    KENTUCKY: Statwide Bill Proposed to Ban Smoking and Vaping

    Been looking into this more: The next public hearing that will include this issue is at the Madison County Health Department board meeting on April 6th. I intend to be there, and I intend to bring support in the form of pro-vaping family and friends. I would encourage any and all Kentucky...

    Dropped an E-mail on Leland Conway @ 630 WLAP AM

    Lexington has a very active talk radio scene (so does Louisville, for that matter), and I just dropped Leland Conway (630 WLAP's local show host) an email about e-cigs. Encouraged him to get back to me if this was a subject that would be good for the show, and told him I'd provide links for...

    Are we getting a website up and going or what?

    "Safe Enough for a Baby's ....!" I love that that's on there! Mage is wanting to put up a "Legal" section which would cover the, well ... "Legal" aspects of vaping in Kentucky. What other sections would everyone like to see?

    Really fun vapers meeting

    Sorry I missed it, guys! Sounds like everyone had a good time.

    Need some ideas for future meets!

    I'll have trouble making meetings that aren't in Lexington for the next couple of months, but I just got my lisence back and will have a car again soon, so that'll change relatively quickly. I'd love to get around the state a little more and meet more of our local vapers!

    Updates coming to the e-mail list soon!

    No Juppers, I mean Phil Moffet. Much as I'm a fan of Mr. Galbraith, I don't think we'd gain much by having him on this issue, either. ;) Alright, BGVers, I just sent out an email. I've gotten in contact and sat in on a meeting with CASAA. They're aware of our predicament, and it will be the...

    Where in Ky?

    The club I work at layed off half our servers over our January maintenance period. I very well may not be able to attend. I'm going to try my damndest to get it covered, though.

    You guys fornicate rocks!

    Updates coming to the e-mail list soon!

    Hey BGVers, Firstly, allow me to apologize for dropping of the map the past two weeks. I had some personal legal issues that had to be resolved before I could ever start trying to put this stuff together. Or I likely would have been detained upon thinking of entering a government building...

    Pulled The Big Batty Trigger

    I dunno if you're into Cisco's atties, but he's now making both 1.5 ohm, and 2.0 ohm. The 2.0's might just hold up longer than the 1.5's, and you can still get up to those 5-6v wattages with fewer volts and longer battery life. Just something to consider.

    January Meet 1/22 in Lexington

    It was a pleasure to meet everyone. I had a great time, and we managed to get a small amount of bidness discussed. Got to try some juices from our resident local vendor and walked away with some damn good DIY juice from Phantompigbee5 (I think, right?). It was quickly dubbed Agent Orange...

    Head count for Saturday, January 22nd Bluegrass Vapers meet

    Hey, thanks Mage. I just told them we'd be as few as 5 to as many as 20, but likely -as with most things- somewhere in the middle. See y'all there.

    Second hand vape in public

    You know that's false, right? There are carcinogens in e-liquid with nicotine. Very, very trace amounts of some tobacco specific nitrosamines. Essentially the same as in NRT products. Can't get away from them when deriving nicotine from tobacco. That being said, bacon and beer have trace...

    Head count for Saturday, January 22nd Bluegrass Vapers meet

    Hey guys. I probably should have attempted to do this earlier, but if everyone could sound off in this thread, I'd like to get an approximate headcount so I can tell the restaurant about how many to expect.

    Statewide Smoking/Vaping Ban - Bill introduced Jan 6

    I'll be there, with bells on. I've got some documents compiled, but I won't be able to print all of it out to bring, or anything, but we'll at least be able to discuss a strategy should speaking before any State Officials become necessary.

    Statewide Smoking/Vaping Ban - Bill introduced Jan 6

    I was thinking the Chilis on the corner of Man O' War and Nicholasville Rd. I used to work there, and the staff is familiar with and accepting of, vapers. If we do this on this coming Saturday, how early could everyone come? I have a work-related obligation later in the evening which I...

    Thanks for all the helpful advice, Elaine. :)
