Seriously. I can think of a million ways to open a corked bottle without a screw. I’m also an alcoholic so take that into account.

Star Trek did amazing things with Data’s emotion chip. It was a shame it was basically when the films went into bad writing and cheap ideas :/

Frankly, I’m with you. And courts generally look favorably on parents who use last-resort violence to prevent sexual assault on a child. I can’t even imagine it... but as uncomfortable as it is, I think that is one of many, many few situations I could see myself engaging in actual violence.

I’d hit someone in the face with a baseball bat.

You should stop posting studies where you don’t understand the core physics behind them. Every study you linked is using devices beyond any concept of “normal” use and are akin to saying “someone who smokes 60 cigarettes a day has a large chance of developing cancer”. It isn’t untrue, per se, but it is disingenuous.…

PCPs rarely see vaping as a worse alternative and most, as I understand, are very happy to have patients quit smoking in favor in vaping along with the “quit in the end” conversation. It seems the medical professionals who are against it are those who don’t see people day-to-day for their day-to-day health needs.

This is good if it helps people get off smoking altogether, but you still need to be respectful of others.

I’ve often found the largest complaints come from people drenched in other scents. Like a vaper dared to contradict their right to smell only what they want everyone around them to smell.

His lungs have cleared up and he’s been able to come off of bp meds. Let us have it. Damn.

I have no idea who you are or what your credentials are. Your appeal to an invisible authority means nothing. I, honestly, don’t know a single oncologist who has anywhere close to the time to argue on the internet like you do.

See, that just makes you an asshole.

I assume you chase all the FDA papers and avoid any kind of ingestion that could possible not be 100% safe?

There’s the very real aspect of this that vaping is rarely illegal currently and bosses would rather smokers vape at their desks and keep working than losing 10 minutes every hour to accommodation.

I’m not claiming they’re “safe”. Not at all. But you need to make room in your mind for people who can’t just break addictions at the drop of a hat.

Then something I support entirely is getting doctors like you on board with the idea that we need to outlaw tobacco. If we didn’t let people like PM run rampart we’d never even be in this place.

Can you tell me the usual votage and oHms on a vape?

I think the point trying to be made is that cigarettes are so addictive and full of additionally addictive chemicals that the idea that

If we’re thinking of the same study, their burned at levels no consumer device could ever reach without modification. It was kinda an issue, since their findings were based on conditions that never are common.

Phillip-Morris is engaged in a campaign to do just this and convince the government that their vapes are the only safe vapes. Which basically means the same cadre of smokers being trapped by a health-adverse company once again.

That looks like what is becoming more common. A battery with a little boxy design that allows for a small display to tell you, amongst other things, when your atomizer is starting to go. That’s one of the bigger actual health risks is burning bad atomizers which creates the bad chemicals.
