Big Vapor needs to play dumb at these hearings because they can't afford to make enemies - they will, after all, be the main beneficiaries of the regulations. As soon as a product area becomes regulated, playing politics becomes far more important than marketing. You can eliminate your opponents...

Easy. Just get into a situation where paying your mortgage means depending on cash from a drug cartel. They have to move product, you have to pay your mortgage. If you're desperate enough you'll spout any old lies to keep the money coming in, and tell yourself it's OK. Even concentration camps...

I don't like the mysogynistic implications of the phrase used by DC2 to describe this apology for a doctor, although it is absolutely perfect for this kind of scum. If it was a man I'd use the same phrase or one for the male equivalent. These bought and paid for medics contribute to corrupt...

Ecopure from Intellicig is one.

What Kristin said :) It might be hard for some to work out which is the worst: the tobacco industry or the pharmaceutical industry. In fact there is no competition there, pharma is far more evil in every possible way. Tobacco corporations don't actually want you to die, because killing...

Need a 510 adapter, sealed, with a catch cup. It's to hold an atty and driptip, for dripping when the top end of the ecig is not sealed. Yes I have drip sleeves and all but if the adapter is not sealed, liquid goes down through. Would be easiest just to have a sealed adapter with a catch cup...

I can see no functional difference between drug pushers headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland or Medellin, Colombia. I also think you would be more likely to get an honest answer from Pablo Escobar than his equivalent in Geneva or wherever. But the law says different :)

Polito's opinion seems to be that, by inference, Glaxo-Welcome are the largest-scale corporate murderers in the US. The shareholders are probably happy though. Philosophy class debate: State your reasons why, either for or against, the proposition that a Glaxo-Welcome shareholder who is also...

OK I have a problem. I don't know if I should post (1) or (2). Opinions please. 1. If I wanted Super Mario's opinion about e-cigarettes, I'd ask for it. or, 2. Damn. Looks like Super Mario sold out to Big Pharma. :)

As it goes, V2 are one of the best mini e-cigs out there. I've tried a lot so I'm happy to say this. They are a KR808 so most other KR8's will fit, either battery to carto or the other way round. So you can use other vendor's stuff on them if you wanted to. V2 batteries are exactly the same as...

Works very well, especially for the price. No one has much in the way of reliability data though, as it is too new - but at that price you could almost say if it works for 6 months you're well ahead of the game. Plus it has some good features: voltage readout, voltage lock, digital master on/off...

One thing this study did do is raise Mr G. Connolly in my estimation - temporarily. He had previously been linked, in my mind, due to various accusations that seemed to have merit, with the pharmaceutical industry's gang of paid liars. But since he very clearly points out in this study and his...

This leaves a very nasty taste in the mouth with regard to Smoking Everywhere. Previous accusations about Ray Storey's conduct were unsubstantiated but this is different. Allegedly, SE refused to pay, and then there were various shenanigans at SE in order to hide the funds, then they defeated...

This is one of the best collections of lies and propaganda about e-cigarettes I've ever seen. It checks the box for just about every mistruth that exists, with the notable exception of 'corrupting the children'. This is an unforgiveable omission and somebody needs to tell them they have fallen...

I believe the pharmaceutical industry would have a very hard time arguing that it is no less evil than the tobacco industry, if you collated all their misdeeds, combined it with their cynical regard for life and their deliberate suborning of whole countries, and put all that on the table for...

I think what this study shows is that you should avoid Greek e-liquid. There are about 4 million people in other countries who haven't experienced this problem - or maybe they don't count. Or maybe Greek clinical researchers are even more incompetent than the bumbling buffoons we get over here...

The beauty of the pharma model is that their products are purposed toward human wellness, so that the corporate business model can escape much of the criticism that would otherwise be leveled at it. For every person who points out the problems pharma cause, another ten will chime in with a...

I second that - wouldn't it be great to have Steve Seagal on our side. There are a couple of people he could go and sort out, for a start.

I wonder what size bribe it takes to kill thousands of people? Still, someone in the health ministry will be having a nice Christmas.

Also you might end up with nicotine polacrilex as that's what they use in there, not straight nic. Who knows what you will be inhaling that no one ever did before. The skin is a good barrier for most of that stuff. Doesn't sound a good idea to me.
