    I hope the American PactAct isn't infectious. I came across this at SnusOn and want to make our UK friends aware that things could be changing and public comments are being taken. Good luck guys. It hasn't helped here, but maybe you can change things for the better over there :). Eu...

    Insight for users of Camel SNUS

    Larry Waters has written another good article regarding American SNUS. Now that so many are willing to try a reduced-harm alternative to smokes, especially after seeing the 60 Minutes episode on snus, RJR will be full steam ahead to profit from those who assume American SNUS is no different...

    A case for tobacco taxes

    Exhibit 1: U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time It moves pretty fast, but as I scrolled over some of the stuff I had to wonder if it's ticking faster now that I haven't paid 'baccy taxes in a while :). Sorry 'bout that Osama.

    Now manufacturers are raising $$$$

    Bad timing, indeed......for those who've decided to wait until now to stock up, better hurry, it looks like at least Swedish Match will be raising prices across the board effective June 7th. That would be all General, Ettan, Goteborgs, Probe, Lab, Tre Ankare, Roda Lacket, Kronan, Catch, Grov...

    What BT and the FDA don't want you to know

    REAL Snus does NOT cause mouth cancer. The Swedish Government, which has regulated Swedish Snus as a food product since 1970, removed the cancer warning labels from their snus a few years ago when the evidence overwhelming demonstrated that Swedish snus does NOT cause mouth or other...

    Snuff/Snus Exchange

    Ok Wiz, we got a group of fine folks down in the Smokeless sub and occasionally we get stuff we end up not liking, but refuse to throw away (sacrilegious to do so ;)). The idea's been thrown around a few times, but here's my thoughts. I don't wanna sound selfish or anything, so I hope it...

    User notes

    Simple question here, so complicated answers are not permitted (or understood :confused:). If I have "user notes", are they viewable by all or just friends?

    What constitues "Active Members"?

    The bottom of the home page shows "members" and "active members". I assume "members" is a total count of all who've joined since SJ's brainchild became reality. I also assume "active members" are those that post/contribute on a regular basis. So how long would a typical account be inactive...

    Question for 555 fans

    Gotta know and all info is appreciated....I've found vendors who sell the 555 flavor to add to my unflavored liquid, but the vendors don't appear to have any tips on mixing. If I want to make a 30ml bottle of 555, how much flavoring would be comparable to the flavored I would normally buy? I'd...

    Nic absorption with snus

    exo just posted this in the "Experiments" section. Found it interesting and thought provoking: "Yes, also there's the question of how quickly the nic. on the membranes gets to the blood stream, found this snus vs ciggie investigation, which definately raises some other questions as well...

    Has anyone tried the Lab Series,yet?

    Been looking at the Lab 01 and 02 from Swedish Match, particularly the 02 for the higher nic content. I'm not really fond of the traditional citrus/pepper flavor and this is described as tobacco with nut. Sounds kinda tastey. Also, the portions are longer and skinnier than normal portions for...
