... all they had to do was ask either the students or the first 50 vapers they happened across ( or alternatively come here to Hawick and ask just about any second person walking up the High Street ....

BT is selling something that will come out second worst only in comparison to a forest fire or a burning house.
I bet you my favourite mod that BT researched vaping. In their own labs, with their own staff, using their own money. Means they don't have to tell anybody what they've found out.
MSA settlement did reach unprecedented heights also due to the fact that BT did know long before the general public found out that their products are lethal in the long run. And they didn't tell. Quite the contrary.
Any BT CEO NOT buying up vape gear and testing it would not be CEO for long.
They tested. They not telling. If there was really something serious they could hang on vaping, tey'da done it already through intermediaries by just pointing researches in the 'right' direction.
The avalanche of studies that are flawed, slanted, and often don't even deserve to be called studies by even the lowest standards of scientific approach, the continious barrage of 'news', the ceaseless 'statements' by frothing-at-the-mouth ANTZ, they all show me one thing :
They've got NOTHING on vaping.
So, esteemed gentlepersons from BT,BP,BG,ANTZ :
Thanks for thus confirming indirectly that I'm on the right track by vaping on
