    I have been selected for an FDA e-cig study

    I just wanted to give an update on the hour long study. I don’t have too much time, so here are all the high points: • There were about 12 of us (male, female, black, white, and Hispanic) • I was the only one who vapes exclusively; most others preferred ciggs but reported that they vaped when...

    Another BS article about the FDA Regulations

    NBC News - Breaking News & Top Stories - Latest World, US & Local News It's like all they have to focus on these days is the 'flavors' and how they are so dangerously enticing to 'tha childrun'.

    I have been selected for an FDA e-cig study

    The thing is, I'm not convinced that these people REALLY want us to quit and I believe I will be making that point as well.

    I have been selected for an FDA e-cig study

    Sorry I'm late getting back with y'all. The focus group is being hosted by a very well known marketing research firm in my city. I've participated in other focus groups with them and they are very legit. I'm on their participant listing, so when new focus groups come up they send me a survey by...

    I have been selected for an FDA e-cig study

    Everyone, Today I received word that I've been accepted into an hour long focus group here in Richmond, VA. I intend to give them what they're asking for, lol. Does anyone have words of warning to share?

    Has anyone read this anti vaping article?

    When I see a title that refers to 'smoking' e-cigs, I look no further. If they can't even get the basic premise right, what hope do I have for reading a well-informed article?

    FDA tobacco chief says some products are less risky

    My favorite quote: The public health and tobacco control communities have been left with “no choice but to grapple with the issues and the questions of harm reduction,” said Zeller I could just read that over and over all day!!!!!!! I wonder who left them with 'no choice', lol.:laugh:

    University of Pennsylvania Health System to stop hiring smokers

    The problem with that, Uncle Willie, is that nicotine is being targeted as an indicator of an unhealthy applicant regardless of whether or not that is actually true. Those of us that care about decisions being made based on factual information will have an issue with this. This decision by the...

    Mobilizing the Truth Effectively (Carl Phillips)

    Q) How many prohibitionists does it take to change a light bulb? A) None. Changing the bulb would be surrender. With enough effort we can make the old one work the way it’s supposed to. That is such a good one I had to post it in this thread,too! I didn't make it up, totally stole it.

    Medpage Today Article on Tobacco & Obesity

    I agree. They may insist that with no vices that at least they aren't harming anyone in any way. Maybe not, but I'm pretty sure no one will miss them when they're gone!

    Medpage Today Article on Tobacco & Obesity

    Well, I hope all of the people who were so gung-ho to persecute smokers will be equally enthusiastic about their weight making them targets now. There are a LOT more overweight/obese people than there are smokers and it makes sense that their sheer numbers would mean that they cost more than...

    Rachel Ray Banning Ecigs Doctor's input

    Tanks, Thank you for posting. It may be a dated video, but it's hard to always catch everything in the archives before posting. Some people have been here a lot longer than others, so if you are a newer member it is totally possible that you 'find' something to share and don't realize it was...
