@Uncle Seems to be okay from my phone.

@Mandikay Did you get your stuff to build coils?

Pretty day outside, 61° and sunny here. Mostly roaming in and out here at work and getting some air.

Hope it's a good day for everyone. Catch y'all later!

Lunch time check-in. Since Count won't give me his Tesla, I guess I'll just have to be content with my Pico and keep my fingers crossed for future contests.

@SLM yes I did, I've only built on my subtank mini RBA and my nebox, but I love it!! It may just be my imagination but I swear everything tastes better now! And it was so much easier than I thought... Now I'm kicking myself for spending all that money on coils.. Lol. I wish there was a RBA deck for my Nano and subvod.. But I heard that you can rebuild the factory coils.. So that's my next adventure

Google may have been banned by the FDA. If you used Google to search for vape gear, that makes it a tobacco product and will be banned by the FDA!

No problems on my end. Could it be your ISP having issues forwarding packets to Google?

We were debating this issue the other day and decided everything in the Universe is now a tobacco product. If a silicone sleeve for your mod is a tobacco product because it is an accessory that "touches" a designated tobacco product, then everything that touches that product is also a tobacco product, like air... and when you get past the air, there are photons and dark matter in space and... well, I have no doubt that soon the government will attempt to regulate and tax sunshine, the moon, Mars, distant galaxies... Uh, why aren't cigarette lighters, matches, and ashtrays regulated and taxed? Oh, because they support the tobacco industry, which is one of the businesses (beside Big Pharma) who are paying the FDA to make stupid regulations because they are losing billions of dollars because we now vape instead of smoke. Sigh...

Welcome to ECF @MasturVaper Check out this neat contest thread where you can win some really good e-liquid just by chatting with the great folks who hang out here (see complete "rules" on page 1). Lots of fun here! Nicest people on the forum and you just might learn a thing or twelve...

I must agree....... I have been doing some research on this and come to the same conclusions....
I am working on getting to zero nic marshmallow and wonder if it's worth it....if it's still tobacco......
No Uncle I am not having issues with google.......but Yahoo on the other hand is acting up.........

My thoughts on the matter are

Milk is not beef
Syrup is not wood
Ecig Juice is not tobacco

Full agreement. Now, how do we manage to instill such rudimentary intelligence in our government officials?

Unfortunately, it is not intelligence, it's about greed and corruption. It's part of the plan to turn over the industry to BT and BP, starts with banning and prohibition, once the independent players are weeded out, even more regulations will be implemented to benefit BT/BP and try to eliminate remaining players. I was listening to Representative Larry Faircloth from W.Virgina as he explained the path the FDA/BT/BP is orchestrating and it was downright disgusting to hear that such blatant fraud and circumventing of rules were taking place. Rep. Faircloth has become a strong and vocal champion for the vaping world and he's starting to cause a stir. He has a couple of very interesting things up his sleeve that's going to be very curious.........

When I was knee-high-to-a-grasshopper (for those of you who aren't old enough to have heard that phrase, substitute "very very young"), I had a friend who was truly a (OK, ECF doesn't allow the proper word, but it is not idiot - does "more on" work?) (IQ probably somewhere around 60), but he knew the difference between cows and milk, right and wrong. Given that most of the folks who run our government are college grads, I suspect it would be hard to equate having intelligence (or not) with their actions. but...

THIS does explain it all. Problem is, even if one could find a way to eliminate all current government officials and everyone who routinely bribes them, it wouldn't take very long for the next generation of government "employees" to find out that they, too, could cash in on this corrupt way of regulating. There is no Utopia. Even Star Trek's version of federation universal socialism has major flaws, greed, corruption...
Even if it is not about money, too many people seem to relish having the POWER to dictate your life for you. Is it time to bring back the snake flag? Don't Tread on Me!

knee-high-to-a-grasshopper was one that I always heard "Old people" saying and I knew what it meant.....it's been many years since..... I never though I would hear it again.......
