  1. We need a wealthy vaper to run some tv/paper adds :) It's just lack of education on the part of most people and maybe a touch of ignorance, people will always dislike things they don't understand, and the fda, ala and friends aren't really helping.

  2. what i find interesting is that with all the links people are putting about the reasearch i have yet to see the links where they state that nicotine is good for you, and beneficial to your health, and its effects on conditions such as ulcerative colitis, ADHD, Depression, Parkinsons etc...

    what if, just what if the reason we find that we cannot quit cold turkey is because for some of us it is actually a need to self medicate?

    That was on our news, nicotine is good for treating lots of things they say, its not "proven" but it looks promising. One more to add to your list is Alzheimer's, while it isn't a cure they found that high levels could slow the progress considerably.

  3. People do it, and I don't think there is any law against it, but it's all down to stigma, I'm sure if people complained or didn't know what it was they could ask you to stop.

    I vape in the back room of work, my boss asked me to go outside the first time but i just blew some near him and he said mmm it doesn't smell and he let me stay inside :) Same goes for airport i'd say your guna get pulled up but if your polite and explain it they should be ok with it, but yea your guna get some dirty looks from uninformed people i'd say.

    But the people who have the guts to do it are guna further the cause the most, I myself would be too nervous to vape in a public place :( Think of all the smokers that would see you and go wow hes smoking inside and security let him do it, i'm guna find out what that is and buy one :)

  4. The Aus government is spending 60mil to add nic patches to the pharma benefit scheme taking there cost from $140/month to $6/month, e-cigs still banned...

    "We estimate around 70,000 people a year will give up smoking because of this new subsidy," Ms Roxon told reporters. Ms Roxon banned e-cigs btw, 70,000 people for 60 mil! how about you un-bann ecig sales and have that number x10, for free!!!

  5. "I found what is in the e-cigarettes is a mystery." Rage!!! The ignorance and utter stupidity off that comment. Well why not ask someone who DOES KNOW!!! And as for the kids thing, didn't 99% of us start smoking under 18? Think I was 16ish. Even if 200 kids started vapeing instead of 100 smoking that's a win. And that's the worst possible outcome. This just does my head in, there is no logic, not one bit. Good luck to all the New Yorkers, may logic and reason one day win out in government.

  6. Get a few small bottles I got 7 at first, them another 7 :) If some taste bad give them some time, I hated the two coffee ones i got, but now it's all I have vaped in days :) Some others still taste bad but if you only buy a 5/10ml it's not so bad. And personal preference plays a big part, I don't like my watermelon but it's my friends favourite.

    If you get an ego leave cartridges off the order imo, get cartomizers instead, and a few atomizers and a drip tip or two. I use 2 atty's one for fruit/beverages and one for coffees/dulcis (awesome vt flavour) as they don't mix.

  7. I've only been vapeing for a short time but i'm feeling much better, i can breath all the way in without pain now, don't have gunk in my throat in the morning and can smell a bit better, and yea can't believe how bad i smelt... My workmate smoked for a few weeks after i got mine, and i could smell it when he went for a smoke even outside, he's vapeing too now :) Our work has a smoke free policy (which we ignored) and for the first time in 3 years it actually is smoke free!

  8. That's a bit harsh, while nicotine is a drug and is not good for you, so is caffeine. I don't think any drug is good for you, it treats a symptom that is worse than the side effects of the drug, caffeine keeps you awake, paracetamol helps with pain and nicotine stops you murdering people around you :) If you could do without those you would be better off but there certainly not hard drugs by any means or really what you would class as deadly.

  9. Might take so time, money can make people very blind to the truth. And to the average person it only takes 1 negative article in a sea of positive ones to make up there minds, i myself don't believe anything in the media/government until i have researched it myself, but most people are more likely to believe and follow anything told to them by media and government.

    To put that in perspective all they have to do is say one bad thing about e-cigs and everyone is guna think the government is looking out for them, and how great they are :) While we know there evil money grabbing monsters. And they are... every person who doesn't give up smoking because of this ban is on there heads.

  10. I've got the same sort of problem with the hard top ones, I've tried filling with the needle but i have no idea how much to put in i tried 0.5ml and most of it came out the bottom, then i tried the cap cover way filling it to half, but half was left behind. I only manage to get 20 draws out of them before they taste bad. So how many ml can a hard top carto hold? Also my cartos get really hot, burn my lips hot after maybe 5 or so draws. I'm just dripping for now, but i would like to be able to use the cartos on the road. Thanks.
