      Good read. Theres a statement where she said that theres a question about 2nd-hand vaping. I attended a talk about that exact topic and long explanation short about the whole study is that there is no such thing as 2nd-hand vaping. The carrier for nicotine in an e-juice is ~98% propylene glycol, depending on the amount of nicotine, and they used deuterium labelled PG in e-cigs and found literally Zero of their PG isotope in any of the study participants blood, urine, and whatever else was tested.

        Great link Kaplan - Hope you don't mind but I shared with other Snus sites to spread the good word.

          That is a good article and a sign that the fringe media is getting restless with current policy and bias. It may take a bit of time but I think it eventually wins out.

          If the FDA re-categorizes snus as a harm reduction product, that will add significant momentum and be a signal that the pseudo science of the zealots no longer holds sway.

              The argument against is some what persuasive, that is zero new tobacco users and in a another generation no smokers or nic addicts. Most here would encourage any young/new nic user to abstain, I know I would........ ( freedom of choice aside )

                Excellent article. The sooner that the Powers That Be realize that Tobacco will be used in any form available and is not going away and that Snus is the safest known method of absorbing nicotine,the better.
