Good Listen- david goerlitz interview

[rothenbj]

I don't know if this has been posted in the past, but it's a good listen to understand the anti-tobacco zealots. Other than the fact that David appears to be against harm reduction (I think he bought into the smokeless propaganda), he pretty much expresses my impression of what's going on.

Some good stuff there. I especially love his description of our favorite "sue em all" lawyer: "He's an egomaniac, a Michael Moore wannabe. I think the man should lose 50 pounds before he starts talking about someone being overweight."

I don't think Goerlitz is against harm reduction - or if he was, he's not anymore. I know he's approached a few ecig activists in support.

There's some debate on whether he'd be a help or a hinderence to the ecig cause though. Bill Godshall (Smokefree Pennsylvania) has a pretty firm opinion about him.
