This a million times: Ecigs Plaza | It's Time To Stand Up For Vaping - Ecigs Plaza

Okay now I feel guilty. Although I am a PITA to my representatives (that sounds absurd....MY representatives?? Yeah right.) I am now going to be just a little more forceful (tactfully of course) with my presentation of evidence to the contrary on e-cigarettes. I have printed about 10 articles (the improved lung function is of course first) and I am going to present it to some physicians. SLOWLY... I'll start with the lungs, public exposures, proponents (Clive, Dr. Gill, Seigel etc.) and testimonials. I have to approach this slowly. But damn it we are battling ignorance and I am very tired of it. I'll start with the RIGHT if you know what I mean. A little more reasonable. .Have to be careful of the LEFT side.

It's been a very busy day on the interwebz with stories about FUD flavoring scares, ineffective cessation "studies", and the CDC data and press release. However, within hours of the CDC press release and the cessation report (sponsored by the people who brought you Still Blowing Smoke), Dr. Siegel wrote two articles on his web site to basically trash them both.

What used to take days to debunk is now just taking hours!
