I have some thoughts on this whole vaping thing i felt like spelling out. Im a noob of about 6 weeks. I dont even have my ADV figured out yet. Maybe once I get settled in my feelings on this whole thing will change. A new vapors feeling and views are actually quite important. Everyone goes through this stage. Some stick through it and some don't. Im choosing to stick through it.
I get the impression that most vapers here like the way the vaping world is structured and want it to stay the way it is. I disagree and I believe if it stays the way it is it will not survive. Its new and I get that but from what ive seen a large part of the vaping world is mom and pop, basement and low budget setups. I do see there are bigger vendors putting out better products but they are very few and far between relative to the numbers. I dont want the FDA to ban it. I dont want big pharm to control it either but I feel like something more needs to happen to vaping. I feel like it needs science and money to create facts and hard evidence about it. I feel like everything I try to figure out about vaping is full of speculation and rumors. Ive been obsessed with vaping research for the last month on every topic you can think of but I find few facts. All I get is what Johnny thinks works but billy says thats crap and his way works better. I order ejuice that has poison and chemicals is it and jo blow is mixing it up in his basement. Who the hell is jo blow? I need juice but I want Dr science mixing it up using his sterile lab to analyze it before he sends it to me. I don't want juice I need to steep. I shouldnt have to steep a product im buying. I dont need to steep Blu cartos. I guarantee Dr Science and his team of nerds could figure out just what the whole steeping thing is and take care of the whole thing for me. All anyone really knows about steeping is what seems to work for them. Im inhaling juice as a healthier alternative to smoking and thats what I want it to be. I dont want to buy it from a guy trying to make a buck in his free time, buying ingredients from god knows where, mixing it up while he watches tv with no shirt on. I want the health department watching where he does it, what he puts in it and how the final product turns out.
It goes beyond the juice making. I think the whole industry is being held up not wanting bigger players to step in. I want science and technology to prefect e-cigs. I want the learning curve to be straightened out but until then I will keep doing what the rest of you are doing, learning through trial and error.
