From Kate
Hi Phil (and Dimitri), Don’t usually do this but just wanted to say what a great job you’ve done with the Zlide. I’ve been vaping for 7 years and hadn’t really taken much notice of what is currently available but my daughter & son-in-law finally decided to give vaping a go so I needed to find them something not too expensive (or big), easy to use and reliable. I ended up getting them a Coolfire Z50 kit each and it is perfect! You’ve thought of everything!
I’m in the UK and started vaping in 2013 when the EU TPD was in progress (threat of medicinal licence & 4mg nicotine) so had to advocate from get go. We are doing OK in the UK now but I am watching the US situation with disbelief and hope it improves for you all. I continue to do everything I can to support vaping and it feels never ending doesn’t it? – I still have to complain regularly to the media here about disinformation and ignorance.
For me (smoked for 38 years) it has been a miracle. It often feels like a losing battle but then I remember how many people vaping will help avoid serious smoking related illnesses and death. My husband never tried vaping, I couldn’t persuade him. Then he got throat cancer and had a laryngectomy. He now breathes through his neck and can’t smoke or vape. As you can imagine this keeps me focused and very grateful to everyone else who also keeps advocating even when it seems pointless and exhausting. I suppose what I’m saying is thank you for the kit but also for everything else you both do, Kate

VAPING NEWS: BENEFITS WHEN GOV’T STOPS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE REGULATIONS
“Despite the huge efforts from public health lobbies and vast amounts of taxpayer funding spent on cessation services, the most successful method for stopping smoking is vaping. But across the world, the freedom of individuals to vape is coming under attack: from Australia where vaping is effectively banned, to the Netherlands where a counterproductive ban on flavours is planned for 2021. The liberty for individuals to choose to improve their health by vaping is being constricted. The European Union is even considering taxing the product. Britain has largely been a force for good in promoting a harm reduction approach, with much of the world looking on at our ever-reducing smoking population with envy. However, these changes have not come about because of government mandates, but instead due to vaping technology being developed and sold by entrepreneurs.”

From Dallas
I am 43 and was a smoker for over 25 year’s. I found your channel when I started vaping and it was so helpful and entertaining that I tell anyone about it when they need help. My girlfriend now watches you too and she has gone from smoking a pack per day to almost nothing. She still struggles when she gets stressed out and let’s ++it gets the best of her. She has been dealing with some serious medical issues for the past 2 years which we haven’t been able to find any medical solution for so it has been really tough so I can’t give her to hard a time when she gives in.
My 68 year old mother who was a smoker for over 50 years (she started back when she was just a teenager) had also been cigarette free since May 5th 2020. She uses the Blu ecig in tobacco flavor. I am so proud of her and I don’t care what she uses as long as it works for her. I have tried to give her some other alternatives but they all seem to make her have that cough reflex and the Blu ecig doesn’t. She enjoys your videos too. So you sir have done a lot for my family and loved ones when it comes to quitting smoking. I just wanted to say thank you.

Hi Phil,
I stumbled upon an old clip this morning of The China Syndrome and couldn’t help but draw similarities between the subject of the movie and vapers’ endless fight for the truth to be told.
Now, before you think the final marble has slipped from my head, bear with me.
Jack Godell (Jack Lemmon) knew the truth about the power plant and was hushed by the large corporation which owned it because…money. Hmm, there’s a surprise. When the power plant shows signs of possible devastating malfunctions, the character, Jack Godell, in an act of desperation, attempts to take over the control room to remedy the situation. In an effort to cover up/halt Godell leaking the problem, the SWAT teams are called in and he is fatally shot and therefore silenced.
With the media swarming outside the power plant, searching for answers (remember investigative journalism?)the corporate big shots are able to paint Jack Godell as a lunatic, until his best friend breaks down and spews the truth on live tv – that Jack was not a lunatic but an intelligent man who was trying to do the right thing. The character knew he would not be listened to.
The never ending lies swirling globally about vaping, the knowledge that the aim to destroy the industry is truly money driven, that politicians are interested only in re-election and the healthcare system isn’t about health – the fight to keep the industry alive seems insurmountable. Like David and Goliath.
I feel like Jack Godell.
My voice seems a mere whisper when compared to the power and voice our ignorant/criminal politicians, the ratings-focussed media and monied corporations hold.
When will we be heard?
Will we be heard?
Ever have a dream where you’re struggling to scream for help but nothing comes out? And you awaken because you hear your own voice squeaking desperately? That’s how I feel. I’m sure I’m not alone.
My hope is that vapers don’t end up like Jack Godell, a victim of corruption, an unheard voice. That at some point in the near future the science and our voices will be heard. Until then, I’ll get angry, stomp my feet (in the privacy of my home)and won’t back down. It’s exhausting and at times feels hopeless but I can’t give up the right to save my health.
After all, David beat Goliath.
I can assure you I’m not crazy, Phil, just mad 😉
Thank you for listening, I do appreciate it.
Cheers,
Janine – 62 yr old former smoker (40+ years). Post menopausal aka, “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.” (Major movie references today)
