I can blame the cat. Can't blame my 3 yr old because when he does them he starts giggling manically (no idea where he got that from!)

lol at all the replies. I was rotten last night and was wondering if it was the VG because I know some people are affected by it. Still, all good fun Not sure the wife agreed though... Especially when I played my nightly game of "dutch oven" How on earth does my wife put up with me lol

Glad you like it The MVP one was a fantastic mod with the best battery life out there and the V2 is even better on features. I love mine, got a V1 and a V2.

I love vapour and for me it's second only to flavour.

I'm on FB but I can't for the life of me work Twitter I've got to admit even after a couple of months or more I'm still fumbling my way through it. Still I've been able to insult Stanton Glans Glantz (Mad Stan) who is a US professor and very anti-ecig to the point of a foaming frenzy. I've told The Angel of Death exactly what I thought of her on numerous occasions. I've also had a lot of good "chats" with some important people and some good laughs as well. But over-all I've been able to read and comment on stuff as it happens, with the number of times the TPD nearly changed date on Friday and Monday it was a real rollercoaster ride I just created an account and then started following Dave Dorn and form there started following people he was commentating to and went from there. I've got just under 100 followers now that can read everything I type and I'm following about 130 that I can see what the are thinking. I retweet things that I'm interested in so my followers can read it, and I reply to others conversations so my followers can read them too. When you get in a big enough network, news travels very fast and lots of people can chat about the same things.

Brilliant, a shame I don't do Twitter, but I think I'm in love. Go for your life & ours, Dr Jessen. You should go on Twitter jess It's why the news on the forums is a bit sparse, it all kicks off in real time on Twitter. You get the news almost before it happens and can respond directly to the people that matter.

He's gone back to film young people's wobbly bits and unmentionables now but I think he's raised E-cigs profile amongst people that would actually use them more than the Daily Fail or Huff post could hope to damage. Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 12m Right, must go and film more now. It's absolutely boiling here -97 degrees! I'm melting. Expand Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 16m Most of us are happily addicted to caffeine without any probs whatsoever and will be for life. Same applies to nicotine. Expand Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 19m SO DOES CAFFEINE Steptoe_bolstridge: @doctorchristian nicotine can put a strain on heart as it raises heart rate and blood pressure. View conversation Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 28m NO, NOTHING LIKE THAT @tent101: @doctorchristian That's like saying "it's not the velocity that kills you in a car crash, it's the wall". View conversation Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 33m STEAM! @louisegm1: @doctorchristian what if you didn't crave nicotine but wanted something to inhale that's harmless, what would u suggest?

Retweeted by Dr Christian Jessen View conversation Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 42m My point is there is nothing really wrong with being hooked on nicotine. It isn't the cause of the harm from smoking. Expand Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 44m NOPE, IT'S COLOURLESS AND ODOURLESS @h0usetargaryen: @doctorchristian What about social factors, though? Doesn't nicotine stain your teeth? View conversation Reply Retweet Favorite More Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 45m AH SWEET! @jvstinperry: @doctorchristian can we get married?

Is that not bad for u?” View conversation Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 1h I'M INDIFFERENT @suse369: @doctorchristian do you approve of the tobacco companies selling them too? View conversation Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 1h In my view people can be on e-cigs indefinitely. No real medical need to ween off them. As long as not on real cigs then all fine. Expand Dr Christian Jessen ?@doctorchristian 1h E-cigs appear 2b just as effective as patches in helping people to give up smoking. Safety needs to be confirmed but I approve of them.

He seems to be doing a WHO and has launched a Pro-Ecig Twitter bomb tonight. I can hardly keep up with his positive tweets! Is the worm turning? He's got 260k followers. Not bad

Of course everyone on here all know from first hand experience they are are effective if not better than conventional NRT but unfortunately this article may lead people to believe E cigs pose no risk to health, as it says in the article - " However, he did call for longer-term studies into the consequences of using the devices." so the report doesn't tell us anything we don't already know really. I'm not sure whats positive about this. If the study concluded that e-cigs have absolutely Zero health risks then i would be shouting "Yipee" etc etc. The reason i might sound so negative about this is im not one of those standard thread replies you see all over the net "i smoked 30 a day for 30 years untill...." Infact i only smoked for 2 months after a 10 year quit and now i'm having issues getting off the e-cig and i worry stupid about putting this in my lungs. Thanks. Compared to inhaling a very toxic mix of hot gasses and particulates proven to cause massive health issues including cancer - E-cigs aren't something to worry about. If the choice is nothing or E-cigs then nothing is safer, but if it's E-cigs or burning tobacco it's a no brainer.

He seems to be a staunch supporter! Good to have someone with some knowledge and media clout on our side.

Some of those I was doing in my 20s as well. On balance though (through denial) I'm not old yet

It does but it's Big Pharma that funds most research in health. Why would they want to fund conclusive studies into a competing product that might show it in a favourable light? I know that's the core problem. It's a political problem really...How to eradicate hypocrisy? I agree and we've got no chance at that Luckily MEPs are coming round to our views, Pharma has a vested interest in E-cigs failing and Health politics is funded by Pharma therefore pretty corrupt. I'm sure the truth will out, we are making huge headway into the EU.
