    New Format

    The new theme is beautiful, much sleeker and cleaner, and kudos for that...but it reverts to the old one when I sign in, as noted up top. How do I comment in the new digs, or is that a work in progress?

    Snus is very tidy, pleasant, easy and ungross!

    Well, this is pleasantly surprising. I bought my two cans of generals and started with the mini mint about 30 minutes ago. They are really very cute little items, comfortable up there above my eyetooth, and just a very pleasant, mild, salty-mint taste. So simple. I've started to get a little...

    the Plume Room

    Just received my little package from the much-praised Plume Room. Beautifully packaged in clear, hard plastic bottles with a personal note, very classy, witty biz cards and tags, and a very clear, slightly amber juice. (I pay a lot of attention to packaging now, as I've found that attention to...

    Any vendor that doesn't disclose source for their nicotine base.

    Period. And any vendor who doesn't test nic levels. There's a lot of BE chatter but I'm your average customer - if a product is reported unsafe, I scratch the manufacturer from my list. I don't need gramma's secret flavoring recipes, but I need to know that my juice is carefully controlled for...

    NY V4Lifers

    The abysmal bill in NY still has to get through the Health Committee, the Senate, and the Gov. It's very much not over. I just called all of the HC member's offices, used the CASAA form letter to help focus my concerns and comments, and whether or not they will pass much but a "pro" or "con"...
