From WaPo: "Unlike the human digestive tract, which can break down and get rid of foreign substances, the lungs aren’t designed to handle anything except gases, experts said."
That's not true. Macrophages ingest and clear out everything in general, such as dust and pollen which are common everywhere in nature. Then they get expelled in sputum.
Indoor air is full of stuff from normal activities like cooking.

Anyway, we're vindicated now. And those "health authorities" are exposed as liars.

The story is all over UK news now, but guess what... it's not until the 3rd or 4th para that the fact that the carts are bought on the street by people who want to buy a psychoactive molecule is revealed by most outlets.
Many people will not get that far.
As the articles are very, very similar it must be syndicated, so it's a copy and paste hack journo job yet again... or cunning corporate influence, who knows.

There are plenty of people who refuse to stock up on nic base and learn to DIY to insulate themselves against the FDA. They say, "I'll just buy my juice on the informal market", which basically means from a dealer on the street. No thanks. I wanna know what I'm vaping.
I heard on the radio that some stupid woman is planning to sue the legitimate vaping companies about her daughter's illness. I'm sure the "health authorities" are pleased with themselves for inciting this unjust lawsuit.
I too have sort of horror of the black market. I mean, I want to be part of it in some way if it happens, like carrying a derringer in my stocking thingy what are they called OH I forget you wear one at your wedding and in this horrendous ceremony the groom removes it and tosses it for like whatever guy wants to get married next (the guys all usually run and hide you have to throw it AT one, really. Oh right, garter. I gun in my garter and lots of minions.
But I'm saving the legit stuff for myself I cannot think of anything worse than buying awful liquid from that kid on the street. That holds like NO appeal. Putting him there maybe but being on the buy side not the supply side? NO thanks.
I am mixing today, as it happens .TODAY I MIX.

Yesterday was mixing 16oz of 2mg nf vanilla, cream, and a pinch of their caramel cream (all diacetyl-free).
It took 5 minutes, including cleaning the little 15 ml measuring cup [emoji3]

Today's New York Times: "New York has had 34 reported cases of severe illnesses, in patients ranging in age 15 to 46; in each case, the patient had used 'at least one' [c-word]-related product, the state news release said... [FUD] ... The state said that the vitamin E compound was found in tests of [c-word] products, but not in the nicotine-based products it tested, a finding consistent with reports from doctors that many illnesses have been linked to people using a vaping device for [m-word]."

Local CNY (Syracuse) paper had an article on the first similar thing popping up in CNY. I commented with a 16 word quote from the WaPo article about it not being found in the nicotine eliquid tested so far, and that doing anything ending up with vitamin E acetate in liquids to be vaped is stupid.

I guess it was politically incorrect to point things out [emoji3]

Michael Siegel reports that the bootleg T-word cartridge industry began using a new thickening agent in late 2018. "Very possibly, that new agent was vitamin E acetate."

There's a new NEJM article out, "some report using only nicotine products."
Any odds on how many of the "some" who turn out to be like the young "not me" guy whose brother, a state trooper, didn't believe him and found what he was actually vaping?

I just thought of an important question. He reports that the Vitamin E acetate must be heated to very high temperatures in order to vaporize. Does anyone know whether special vaping gear would be needed to do this? And would small self-contained systems like Juul pods even be capable of it? I'm sure there must be experts around here who would know.

Vitamin E acetate is basically grease, said Michelle Francl, a chemistry professor at Bryn Mawr College. Its molecular structure means that “you have to heat it up pretty hot” for it to vaporize. Its boiling point is 363 degrees Fahrenheit
Juul max temperature : electronic_cigarette
The Juul does claim to have temperature control. But, when I was using one I did get dry hits every so often. So, I'll assume the temp limit i set higher than 410° F. I can only assume, but I would educated guess it's set to around 500° F.
Unmmgh. It's the right time for the facts to come out, it's like... People have moved on already.
Our ACCELERATED (probably artificially) news cycle needs to STOP. I mean how many people will even read this, let alone connected it to the earlier stuff? Oh well WP readers are usually smarter but STILLLLLllll.
I'm just in a bad mood, waiting for its passing so I can mix. Mixing in a bad mood is NOT good. It's like cooking angry. Not good.
