Interesting article from Central PA

[TomCatt]

Found an article about vaping in "The Sentinel" out of Carlisle, PA. The story focuses on Dave, the owner of the Blue Door vaping shop. Dave mentions the Glantz "study" published in JAMA Pediatrics and seems to take Glans at face value; so I had to send Dave an email (civil and with a number of appropriate links)

ETA:
It was pointed out to me that it WAS NOT Dave who mentioned the Glantz 'study'. It was retired pulmonologist Dr. Bell who brought up this study.
I apologize for my mis-reading of this article.

Just one of those factoids propagated by the tobacco zealots. They have so many.

If I went 2 hours between smokes, way back when , I would be getting jittery and anxious for a cig. If I went 3 hours w/o smoking, I'd start getting a bit shaky. Nowadays, with ~4.5 mg/mL nic juice, after a couple hours w/o vaping I just start to think it'd be nice to have a vape; I'm not ready rip someone's head off. So cigs may be {OTHER STUFF}-like; but I doubt that it's all due to the nicotine. (IMO & YMMV)

If you re-read the article, you will note that the JAMA article wasn't quoted by Dave, it was quoted by the pulmonologist Dr. Richard Bell. Along with all the other ANTZ rhetoric.

Hmmm, you are correct sir If Dave replies to my email, I'll apologize for my mis-reading of the article.
