Thank you

Look for EddaedinWinter's posts.

...and this is where The Ocelot adopted the Provarinati moniker, and formed the ProVari personality cult.

History Lesson!
The Provarinati "cult" got it's start on 04-17-2013, (Mars was in Aries and 4/25-5/25 saw three eclipses, two lunar and one solar eclipse marked the Provarinati's beginning) but of course there were ProVari fans long before then. It only seems like the Provarinati has existed as long as the ProVari. I'm not sure when The Ocelot coined the phrase "Lumen Sees Totus" though.

I knew it! April 17 is my birthday. I knew there was an auspicious reason I so craved a Provari. It was meant to be.

Cool oh ok, I'll definitely read it, I think she sent me this the other day but; well, got sidetracked chasing kids. Gonna read through it now.
Thanks again.

I get that the LST has been said for long before I showed up. But I said when I first got the provari, "now I get it" just as pbusardo said. In addiction, the the three new people in the saloon all said the same exact thing, "now I get it." When LST was first being used it is my understanding that the intent was a Latin phrase of "now I get it"
I'm only bringing this up here because we seem to have a final draft and the Latin translation for now I get it, is "Nunc intellego" just saying it's not too late to replace LST. I understand that changing the original saying May not be a good idea to some. But to new owners and members it may carry more meaning. My first provari vape bordered on a religious experience. It was the first vape that didn't miss an analog. It was the first time I could say that I wasn't an ex-smoker; but rather, a current vapor. Those word of, "now I get it," meant something. Then again I hadn't wondered into the saloon yet. And I'' going to get a couple of caps no matter what saying is on it. Just wanted to make sure that perspective out there; not really trying to change anything, i love the cap, and can't wait to get it. I'm jut putting the perspective into a way that may not have been considered is all.

I am in the process of updated my "Greetings" thread. The ProVari Epiphany is clearly addressed is the Sacred Text of Manual.

And then there was this infamous thread that inspired me to write the Sacred Text of Manual. I was moved to clarify the information, since the OP didn't get my joke and reported me to the mods for being mean to him.

Can't help but find it moderately amusing. I just read the threads that POM posted and feel a little better with somewhat of an education on the history of the provarinati. knowing something started or the meaning behind a phrase just helps; at least for me. I've always been the kind of person that wants the scientific answer to, "why is the sky blue?" Explains allot as to why I am the way I am; or, it's the byproduct of growing up in a family full of engineers.

You, mean?

This has been a fun collaboration with all of you.

I know I said I was going to let this run for two weeks, but I don't really feel this is necessary any more. Enough people have liked this design or some variation of it. So this cap, with Lumen Sees Totus engraved on the edge will be our submission to ProVape. Now Ocelot, Kenny and I have to figure out who will be getting the image ready for submittal.

Donations split 50/50, with half going to CASAA, and the other half going to Wounded Warrior Project.

*The only concern I have is that ProVape might balk at having a date on it. These could be hard to sell in 2015, 16, etc. On the other hand, they could be quite collectable, depending on how many ProVape makes. Also, it would be nice if ProVape makes this a yearly fan project, which will let us go back and revisit other designs. I expect I'll be making a Pre-order thread to gauge how many of these we'll need.

I also need suggestions for engraving the sides of the extended cap, if ProVape lets us have both standard and extended cap options.

 

[Fir3b1rd]

AWESOME!!!!!! Thank you PLANofMAN, Ocelot, Kenny and provape!

 

[Harleybarbie]

Love the cap.

Ok, had to post a Haz.

But I'll really need 4!

EddardinWinter came up with Lumen Sees Totus. I'll see if I can find it.


Here you go: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/lounge/409234-i-gotta-stay-away-888.html#post10025741

"I Gotta Stay Away From..." is not where the ProVarinati started, but it where we were nourished and grew before taking over the ProVari forum.

I wait with anticipation! Are you doing anything with the "Provarinati Poster"? (I love those threads!)

If Provape balks about about the date, not a deal killer for me. If they let us keep it, all the better. Outstanding job by all!!

I also like this one quite a bit. With or without the 2014 on it. I would buy one.

Love it and great work you guys!!!!! If they balk on the 2014, replace it with "Made in the U.S.A or U.S.A" maybe? Either way...looks awesome and can't wait to buy some!!! KUDOS to our creative peeps!

If real life would give me the slightest break I could focus on it. I'm updating the "Greetings" thread, but the poster may take some time. I need to find a new background, but have yet to find one with the right perspective to use what we have and also have the potential to expand.

 

[KY_Rob]

I know how many I would "like" to have

Any word on cost yet?

 

[Train2]

It needs a mysterious price...like $13.01, with a backstory about how it commemorates the original Lumen of the Totus or something.

I'm betting it will be more like 3 times that amount.

I highly doubt that , special collectors edition caps right now are priced at 12.95.They might charge a bit extra but I don't think they will be more then 20.00$.
