I've been up since 5. I've got a weird feeling that I'll be offered the job and it will turn out to be all wrong for me.

Test failed. Kosh FYI the second registration page doesn't give me a User Name box to fill in.

I'm at work on a Win8 machine with Internet Exploder. so that might be part of the problem

About the vaping hysteria.

Media is agog about the all the vaping related illness and deaths.

There is more to the story.

Pulmonary Lipid-Laden Macrophages and Vaping

Short version, the illness and deaths are related to black or gray market THC oil cut with vitamin E oil. The oils coat and react with the lung tissue and cause the medical crisis.

Vaping is stupid, but if gov't is going to regulate something lets do it on facts and science not hysteria.

Yes, I've noticed the radio ads from lawyers trying to find clients. 

The complete lack of logic is absolutely stunning, but I guess it is only obvious to those of us who remember how aggressively tobacco smokers were attacked.

As a vaper, I have been paying attention to the hype and mis-information about it. Minute I found out about it being cannabis related, and yet another ingredient I relaxed a lot. Most e-juice suppliers have been very careful about what they add to their formulas. An example is diacetel(sp?). A flavoring ingredient that doesn't react well with the lungs. Causes "popcorn lung" due to the discovery of affected workers in microwave popcorn factories that came down with the illness.

I think I know what happened.

I really need to get a reset password function working, but the class I'm teaching is taking too much time. It will be over soon

Whole lotta lurkin' goin' on.


 Well, in some good news on my part, the first week of my ex having custody of my son while she's also working a new, somewhat less geographically convenient job is almost over, and she seems to have dropped her initial "I just can't do this" position,  in particular regarding the "aftercare" at my son's school. So, fingers crossed, that should make life easier.

Glad you could join us.

My job interview this morning went about as well as I could hope. They seem to want to hire someone right away, and I hope it's me.
