Pretty interesting read on what these guys are up to in the near future.

this is what I love
"... If PMI proves successful, the new products will surely save the lives of tens of thousands of their customers...."
this is what it should have said
"... If PMI proves successful, the new products will surely STOP KILLING tens of thousands of their customers...."
Of PMI’s $80 billion in revenue last year, $48.8 billion went to the taxing authorities. It’s as if 12 out of the 20 cigarettes in every pack are sold by some form of government.
I will never again give a single penny to these murderous pieces of filth. They think that people are just going to roll over. I'm pretty confident they are wrong. Do these fools really believe people will trust them after all of their lies? I'd trust an e-cig made from the steel of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant before I would vape anything they made.
Sigh... Pure nicotine fluid?Simple devices that combine a tiny lithium battery with a heating element to vaporize pure nicotine fluid...
Another interesting factoid from this article that explains BGs position:
Is there any wonder why the FDA is pushing them as a tobacco product. I still say someone needs to find another commercially viable source for nicotine.
Still think health has anything to do with the war we're in?
It would be fun to watch the pigs at the tobacco trough go nuts.
"The first new model is an electronic device that looks like an old-fashioned cigarette holder, which heats tobacco to just below the burning point to release the nicotine and flavor of tobacco with fewer harmful combustion by-products like benzene and tar. It will hit the market in an undisclosed country sometime next year. Three more prototypes are in the works, including one that can be lit like a conventional cig."
This is nothing new..
Philip Morris (Altria) had this back in the late '90s thru mid-2000's with the Accord..
RJ Reynolds (Reynolds American) had this back in the '90s with the Eclipse..
RJ Reynolds (Reynolds American) also had this back in the late '80s with the Premier...
Nice HQ, though...
A new twist (well, new to me... I don't read much of glANTZ stuff, but...) "Anti-tobacco activist Stanton Glantz of the University of California, San Francisco thinks the FDA should block new tobacco products until cigarette manufacturers remove traditional cigs from the market"
...
I'm sure he Would like to See That.
And then He can Push to have e-Cigarettes Removed from the Market. And let's Throw Out Smokeless while were at it.
Glantz = No Nicotine
Well... not according to what he said there.
