holy cow that would be hilarious if it wasnt so scary i honestly dont know what to say about that!!
i wonder if they put the plug up their nose and snort it up there to inhale it!
god the mind boggles FDA=FAIL

yeah, I've seen this. Someone was actually looking for a copy to use somewhere...

My guess it was just for effect. Doesn't look much like a "dangerous cigarette" with just the actual battery properly charging! LOL

The FDA has ZERO chance of stopping the marketing and use of e-cigs. It started under ground and it will stay under ground. Word of mouth got it this far and thats the best marketing the industry could ask for.

The manufacturing will continue and the usage will grow. The people who decided not to use it because they heard it might be dangerous will see more and more people quitting with them and eventually switch. The FDA can not stop a good idea. This is why the free market works and regulation does not.

F the FDA

Where've you been hiding? That report is 3 months old

Quote from an ancient philosopher from the Northern territories:
"You have more chance of changing someone's mind by sitting
around a table and speaking to them than throwing COPYRIGHTDMCA at
their back porch".

They aren't talking about the report - they're talking about the photo the FDA has of an e-cig in the charger with the cart and atty attached!

notice nobody is wearing gloves while working in that lab. no wonder they found impurities in their tests. one of their lab rats probably smokes, and got their grubby chemical laden fingers where they shouldnt.

That, or the lab tech pumped some gas in his car before work and was using a pump that was previously used by a guy that just changed his antifreeze. You know how that cross-contamination goes.
