Article Claiming Wisc. Newspapers Shilling for E-cig industry

Found this article that I was going to let go until she commented on the comments and couldn't resist responding-

Emily's Post: Why are Wisconsin newspapers shilling for e-cigarettes? - Isthmus | The Daily Page

Why can't these people stay out of other people's lives.

I read your comments, they are excellent. Unfortunately you just make too much sense and state too many facts, and walls don't understand sense and facts. Sorry!

In all seriousness, every time I read articles like this I am all the more amazed at the anti-tobacco fervor. I honestly had no idea people were so brainwashed over this. More and more people are focusing on banning smoking and now the talk of banning smoking in multi-unit buildings, and all the while oil pours into the gulf and big industries continue to destroy our lakes and streams and car companies keep producing gas guzzlers...but above all else make sure people stop SMOKING!!

Did you catch Gasland on HBO I believe? That has the potential of affecting you and I and it was some scary stuff for the homeowners in the potential drilling area above us. Not to go too far OT, but you're right, all these things are being brought to us by big business and all these zealots worry about is making sure we don't use nicotine or tobacco, regardless of delivery method.

No, I didn't catch it. What's it about? The search for more Natural Gas?

There's another thread about this too - maybe the mods can combine these.

Yes, they must not have noticed mine when they started the other. This one is pretty dead as it is, other than my moving this to the OT mention of frac mining that is eminent in PA where two of us live.

Yes, plus the fact that the Gas industry was exempted from the clean water act in this drilling effort. PA is trying to close the loophole or at least they talk they they are. It's coming and it has some pretty ugly ramifications if something goes wrong. A starting link-

OT, but you just have to question why there is so much effort in stopping E cigs when safety is so ignored in the field of mining. You talk about health risks, you can't live without water. Of course, some business can sell it to you. Of course air quality is another animal
