Ok, Anna, here's a true story for you: Our best man in our wedding, who was also my husbands best childhood friend, transgendered about 15 years ago,after he had a wife and two sons. He went to the Philipines for the surgery. He cashed in his 401K to get the surgery done. My husband is still friends with her/him which I have reservations about. Anyways it's really weird when you know someone as one gender and then they switch. Bigger and taller than my husband, but wanted him to carry his luggage when he came to stay at a nearby hotel. Strange!
Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

Well, of course. A friend of mine who desperately wants to quit smoking just decided to try vaping. This is terrible news for her and others like her. Actually, she'll be fine--I have enough to share--but so many others won't be as lucky. Lots of smokers here, too.
Now would be a good time to tell everyone you know that vapes to stock up as much as humanly possible. Even if they don't know how to DIY yet, they can learn later. This is also when I would be considering some of the more concentrated nic bases. I don't live anywhere near Maine and I am beside myself that a government could do that to it's people.
I coun't myself lucky every day that I live in a State that seems to at least have some level of common sense. Where I live, the tax on vaping stuff is 8.25% which is our standard sales tax on everything (since we don't have any income tax) and no talk of any sort of ban that I have heard. The only way I ever see it being banned here is by Federal law.
And I loved Maine, every time I have been there, which at least a dozen times.
If this bill gets passed, I wont go back.
That would be a shame, I would have to find a dilapidated Lobster shack in a different state to spend my money at.

I once calculated that if I took all my nic and made it up into 6mg juice and sold it at $30 per 1oz bottle from the parking lot behind the pizza joint it would be worth almost as much as my house. That wasn't factoring in the cost of the bottles, VG, flavoring, etc. But still a nice little retirement earner.
Now do the math with 20 gallons of 250mg nic base.
Hint: It's over $3.2 million.
EDIT: How I would get away with it, is I would make the customer provide their own bottles to put it in. That way I am not breaking the law by selling "liquid nicotine containers" as the law puts it. I am only selling the liquid itself, which the law does not seem to specifically say is illegal to sell.

It just seems like we are All sitting in an Audience watching some Stage Play.
We Hiss when the Villains enter from Stage Left. And we Applaud when the Hero delivers the lines we like. But the Play Keeps going on. And somewhere backstage they are getting the Volcano ready for the Heroine to jump into.
... which would easily fit in a decent size chest freezer.Now do the math with 20 gallons of 250mg nic base.
Well, shooting them, as tempting as it may be, would not be socially acceptable.
I just kinda thought that by now that there would be More?
I guess it is like seeing a car crash Everyday on your way home from work. At First, it is Shocking. What with the Blood and the Broken Glass on the pavement. And you might even jump out of your car to try to Do Something.
But after awhile, it Doesn't seem all that Tragic. So you just Sit Back and Watch It as you pass.
Seeing as how we are consumers of liquid nicotine, and that nicotine once consumed enters our bodies, would that not make us liquid nicotine containers, and therefore our mere presence in the state of Maine outlawed?
Here's a pic of my son winning a major award from his teacher in 5th grade. Not sure he was listening to her that much, but I was. She made quite an impression on me.
