Teen Smoking Drops, Gateway Closes, Unicorns Unemployed
Nobody wants to talk about gateway enthusiasts being wrong. No one likes to hear Unicorns are out of work. I do.
Kids sure don’t smoke like they used to.
Teen Smoking Drops, Gateway Closes, Unicorns Unemployed
Evaluation of the safety profile of a (e-cig)
vapour product used for two years – in a real-life setting
Researchers took it upon themselves to lure smokers out of the wild with e-cigarettes.
When the tax stamp covers the health warning label
“the growing threat that untaxed and smuggled tobacco products have on public health”
Isn’t the threat is exactly the same? This is an excellent example of not helping and a waste of valueable resources. As a smoker, you could have put a piece of my own lung on a pack of smokes and it would not have deterred me for a second.
Oh, wait, this is about funding. Silly me. Silly researchers.

“At War With The Tobacco Industry”
Two words: Dick Puddlecoat.
“At War With The Tobacco Industry”
Who forced the cigarette companies to run those anti-smoking ads
It had to be Stan “Puff-N-Stuff” Glantz, of course. Because he is a twit, Stanton Glantz wants to take subtle credit for it before his demise. Written much better than Stan can, it looks as if he may, or might (not sure) have added a line or two in the article, but is taking full credit. Not that I’d ever accuse him of stealing anyone else’s work or anything.

10 Year Corporate Affairs, Strategies (“leaked” document from PMI)
I’m not sure how “confidential” this “is”. Go ahead, look. You know you want to.

22 Million New Smokers Needed: Funding SCHIP Expansion with a Tobacco Tax (2007)
Thanks, Big Bacon Moe!
I’ve said this a thousand times. Tobacco taxes are a Ponzi Scheme. Higher tax to have less smokers pay more to fight smoking is insideous. It’s a Ponzi Scheme.
22 Million New Smokers Needed: Funding SCHIP Expansion with a Tobacco Tax
Stop-smoking drug increases the risk of a heart attack by up to 34% AND is linked to self-harm
Stop recommending it. Stop promoting it. Stop taking it. Just stop.

Challenging Lies about Nicotine Addiction
The recent articles showing “approved” methods to help smokers do not work has inspired me to solicit the wife to unstrap my straight jacket and grab my crayons again…
