Yeah it got creepy, no ECF rules were being violated but since I had sent care packages to them, they knew all my info which raised the stakes. All good though. Howdy fab, what's new in your neck of the woods?

Fine thanks, good to see you here.

Yeah it's funny when a PIF goes bad. Doesn't happen very often though - statistically I've been lucky. Reminds me of the saying:
"One in four people are mentally unstable. Think of three friends and if they seem OK, you're the one."

I like the way you think, Fab. I don't want anything I say to deter the PIF program or the idea behind it. I'd even venture to guess the odds are more like 1 in 50 than 4:1. In either case, thanks for the laugh patna, I needed that.

One in fifty? My, you are feeling generous today. :lol:

Actually vapers by and large are a pretty good bunch. Maybe tobacco abstinence teaches humility as well as ohms law. It figures ;-)

What you say is true, and an interesting illustration of the phenomenon of e-cigarettes: something that will save millions of lives, but has produced a violent reaction from the commercial interests who will lose out.

Something very simple, that is being made out to be complex or dangerous.

Potentially the biggest boost to public health since the invention of antibiotics, but being desperately resisted by people who will lose fortunes as a result. 500 million lives that could be saved, but billions of dollars lost as a result. Just the way it is. Life or money.

There will always be people prepared to kill thousands in order to pay their mortgage, and ECF is an easy target.

Dude, I don't even have to look at my other friends...the voices in my head tell me "it's you...."

"Put me in the hospital for nerves and then they had to commit me, you told 'em all I was crazy, they cut off my legs now I'm an amputee God d**n you! Ahhh I'm not sick, but I'm not well....."

Lol! Considering how much I post, you really should unfriend me (if you haven't already). I can't figure out why people want to be my friend anyway - don't they realize their whole activities page is going to be me?
giggles yes I know...I didn't know that when you friended people until afterwards...looked at my activity page and was like ...??? but it is funny to see everywhere the kitty prowls :D

It's actually more effective to stalk people who aren't you friends. You can still go to their activities page and see what they've been up to. It also tells you where in the forum they are if they're online. You can pull up their post/thread history as well. The only give-away is that it will show is you visited the page, but not when or how many times. There may be an option in settings to make those features private, but I haven't run into anyone who has. A few times I've run into members who don't allow visiter messages, but that's it.
