A lot of his starting data is really bad and skewed toward a Anti-vaping. He does all the standard moves. Conflating e-cigs and THC vapes, overstating the amount of child marketing, etc.

What is interesting though is even with all that he still thinks that smoking is the real major killer here, and that vaping should be studied rather than banned.

mod like to update his data on e-cigarettes, but I like the idea of study. It’s what the ecig community has been crying out for for years and years.

The number one killer of teenagers is motor vehicle accidents...

As well, most all 'studies' end with the conclusion 'more study is needed' (got of feed the researchers and their dependents).


Thoughts above are random. Apply as you find useful.
Yep. That’s what studies are for. They’re not really research. They’re tiny shoestring things that say “this area may need to be researched”. More advertisements for science than actual science. They’ve all we’ve had to work with though since public science got mugged and dragged into a dark alley by the GOP back in the 80’s.
