Green Smoke is an electronic cigarette that looks and functions much like a tobacco cigarette with a few exceptions: it contains no ash, tar, or carbon monoxide that smokers are heavily exposed to with tobacco cigarettes. Instead, the nicotine is vaporized by an atomizer that allows you to inhale a vapor that looks and feels just like smoke. Itšs easy to use and maintain so the smoking experience is greener and cleaner. Therešs no odor and you save 60% more money when compared with tobacco cigarettes! How is this possible? Green Smoke's patented 2 part technology includes a lithium-ion battery, a microchip controller and an LED light at the tip. The light mimics the "lit end" of the cigarette and "lights up" when the e-cigarette is puffed on. The "filter" easily screws onto the battery and contains the liquid nicotine with the built-in atomizer. The "filter" even looks just like the filter on a tobacco cigarette. We even offer a variety of flavors including Tobacco, Marl Tobacco, Menthol, Chocolate, Vanilla, and Coffee. If you are a smoker or have someone you care about that smokes, visit our site to see our products, videos, and customer reviews: http://www.smoke-safely.biz Use coupon code disc10-23856 for a 10% discount on orders over $100, or use disc5-23856 for a 5% discount on all orders. Free shipping on all orders over $25. Therešs a 30-day 100% money back guarantee on starter kits if you are not completely satisfied, so why not give it a try? It's Your Life. It's Your Choice. It's Your Green Smoke. -- Sue Rodgers Green Smoke http://www.smoke-safely.com |

I would be the only one able to walk away if the drug addict refused to turn it off. ^_^ TDD- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - It's the smoke you are allergic to. These things make no smoke. You get your nicotine fix without smoke. If you want to give up smoking in the UK you can get free goverment assistance. Didn't the government there supply heroin addicts with their needs at one time? :-) TDD- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I think at one time they were offered (methanol?). Or similar sounding. I think it was nearly as bad as heroine. There are free clincs. Methadone? A synthetic narcotic drug similar to morphine but less habit-forming; used in narcotic detoxification and maintenance of heroin addiction. Methanol is a light volatile flammable poisonous liquid alcohol; used as an antifreeze and solvent and fuel and as a denaturant for ethyl alcohol. ^_^ TDD |

I don't know what would happen if I was exposed to the nicotine containing vapor from one of your electronic enablers being used by some drug addict. I would be the only one able to walk away if the drug addict refused to turn it off. ^_^ I, perhaps alone, appreciate your sense of satire, but just in case you're serious: Do you carry Epinephrine in case of accidental exposure? If not, you're not allergic but simply don't care for cigarette smoke and exaggerate as do 100% of those who claim an allergy to tobacco smoke. ALL allergens contain some kind of protein and it is this protein that triggers an allergic reaction. There are NO proteins in cigarette smoke. BZZZZT! Wrong answer. Here are some well-known non-protein allergans: Chemical Allergens and Others Nickel sulphate Nickel is one of the most common metals in our environment, and is the most common contact sensitises world-wide. About 10% of all women are sensitive to nickel sulphate and react to metal objects in direct contact with the skin. Potassium dichromate Soluble chromium salts may cause contact dermatitis and are found in wet cement, chrome tanned leather, welding fumes, cutting oils and anti rust paints. Metallic chromium has an oxidized surface and no soluble hromium is released. The metal is thus non-allergenic. Caine mix Caine mix contains three anaesthetics for topical use - benzocaine, dibucaine hydrochloride and tetracaine hydrochloride. Caine mix anaesthetics are used in medicaments that reduce pain, itching and stinging. They are also found in haemorrhoidal preparations and cough syrups. Caines are moderate sensitizers, but are often used on inflamed skin, and therefore allergic sensitization is not uncommon. Epoxy resin Epoxy resin is the diglycidylether of bisphenol-A and is found in strong, two-part plastic adhesives. Only the resin - the uncured epoxy - is sensitizing, and the 340 monomer the essential sensitizer. Quinoline mix Quinoline mix contains clioquinol and chloroquinadol, two antimicrobials used in medicated creams and ointments for wound infections and infected eczemas. Quinolines are not uncommon sensitizers in countries where they are used. Balsam of Pew Balsam of Peru is a wood extract from the South American tree Myroxylon pedere. In the past, it was commonly incorporated as fragrance in cosmetics, medical creams and ointments and used as flavouring in teas, tobaccos, cough syrups, colas, ice creams, baked goods and many other foods. It is decreasingly used, but gives a good indication of fragrance sensitivity, as it includes several different fragrances that sensitize, such as benzyl cinnamate, benzylbenzoate, cinnamic aldehyde and isoeugenol. Ethylenediamine dihydrochloride Ethylenediarnine is an emulsifier and stabilizer found in both medicated and non-medicated topical preparations such as creams and nose drops. It is used industrially as a solvent, curing and anticorrosive agent. Cobalt chloride Metallic cobalt and cobalt salts are strong sensitizers, and are found in many metal plated objects including buckles, buttons and zips, but also in artists' paints, wet cement and hard metal. Cobalt is often found together with nickel, and allergy occurs to both these metals in 25% of nickel sensitivity. This is not regarded as true cross sensitivity. Paraben mix The mixture contains five different parabens; methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, butyl- and benzyl-parahydroxybenzoate. Parabens are the most used topical preservatives worldwide. Parabens are found in several medical creams, lotions, pastes, and in several cosmetics and skin care products. Parabens are used as food preservatives and industrially in oils, fats and glues. Sensitivity to parabens is not uncommon although rare in relation to their widespread usage. Parabens are lipophilic and have low irritant and sensitizing potential. Carba mix Three rubber chemicals, 1 .3-diphenylguanidine, zinc diethyldithiocarbamate and zinc dibutyldithiocarbamate are contained in this mixture. These chemicals are strong antimicrobials and antioxidants, and are used to stabilize rubber. They are found in almost all rubber products including shoes, tool handles, electric cords, etc. They are also found in adhesives for leather, some vinyl products and are ingredients of pesticides. Dithiocarbamates transform to thiurams on exposure to oxygen. Therefore, carbamate and thiuram allergic reactions often occur in parallel. Black rubber mix N.isopropyl-N1-phenyl paraphenylenediamine9 Ncyclohexyl-N1-phenyl paraphenylenediamine and N,N1-diphenyl paraphenylene diamine are antioxidants and polymerization inhibitors found in almost all black rubber products including tyres, handles, rubber washers, hoses and gloves. Hair dye products are related and may occasionally cross react. The black rubber chemicals are strong sensitizers. Isothiazolinones (Kathon CG) A mixture of two allergens; Schloro-2-methylA-isothiazolin-3-one and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3~ne, the chloromethyl derivative being the more sensitizing. Kathon CG is a widespread preservative in cosmetics and commercial household products such as shampoos, creams, lotions, cleaners and washing materials. It is also a widely used industrial preservative for cutting fluids. Quaternium-15 Quaternium-1 5, 1 (3~hloroallyl)-3,5,7.triaza-1 -azonium-adamantane chloride is a preservative found in cosmetics such as lotions, creams, shampoos and soaps. It is also found in commercial products such as polishes, cleaners, and in industrial products such as cutting fluids and paints. Quaternium-15 is a formaldehyde releaser. Individuals reacting to this compound may either be allergic to formaldehyde or have a specific sensitivity. Quaternium-15 has low potential to irritate and sensitizers. Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) Mercaplobenzothiazole is a vulcanization accelerator used in rubber products such as shoes, gloves, rubber bands, gaskets, electric cords. It is also found in adhesives and as a fungicide, bactericide and anticorrosive agent in cutting oils and greases. MBT is a moderately strong sensitizer and a moderately irritant chemical. p-Phenylenediamine (PPD) PPD is a blue-black aniline dye. Together with (elated compounds it is found in many dyed textiles, leather, and fur. Permanent and semi-permanent hair dyes may contain PPD or related chemicals, which to some extent cross react. It may also be found in dark cosmetics, black rubber, photographic developers and printing inks. PPD is readily oxidized in contact with atmospheric oxygen, but this reduces the allergenic potency only marginally. It is an open question whether the dye itself or an oxidation product is the essential allergen. Formaldehyde (N-hydrnxymethyl succinimide) Formaldehyde is the initial component in the manufacture of several plastics and synthetic resins. Residual amounts of formaldehyde are released from such products. Formaldehyde releasing disinfectants and preservatives are widely used in cosmetics, cleaning products and many industrial products. Formaldehyde is found in glues, textiles and some types of paper. There is a significant exposure to formaldehyde in the construction industry from paints, hardboard, rockwool, plastics and waterproof glues. Mercapto mix Morpholinyl mercaptobenzothiazol. N-Cyclohexyl benzothiazyl sulphonamide and dibenzothiazyl disulphide are the allergens included. Uke mercaptobenzothiazol these mercaptochemicals are vulcanisation accelerators used in rubber products. Thiomersal (thimerosal, merthiolate) Thiomersal is a preservative used in contact lens fluids and in particular cosmetics, such as eye shadows. It may also be used as a preservative for eye and nose drops, and for some injectable medicines, especially vaccines and gammaglobulin. Thiomersal contains mercury, but cross reacts only marginally with metallic mercury and the relevance of positive reactions is often hard to establish. Thiuram mix The thiuram mix includes three disulphides and one monosulphide. They are strong antimicrobials and antioxidants. They are found in almost all rubber products, including shoes, gloves, condoms, elastic bands, tool handles, gaskets and electric cables. They are also found in adhesives for leather and vinyl products and are ingredients of pesticides, insect repellents, antiscabies medication, fungicides, wood preservatives, paint additives, lubricating oils and the drug disulfiram (Antabuse). There is an interaction between the disulphides of the mix which form an equilibrium of six disulphides. The cross-reaction pattern of these disulphides has not yet been evaluated. -- Bobby G. |

The question I was answering was HeyBub's assertion that all allergans are protein based. That's not true. I'll bet a lot of people WISH that were true, but it isn't. Plenty of commonly used chemicals will trigger a bona-fide allergic reaction. I suspect he was correct in saying that you're not really allergic to tobacco smoke, but instead are "sensitive" to it in the sense that it irritates your lungs enough to cause a protective response: gobs of green goo.

(-: Allergies cause a histamine reaction which is a bit different than hawking up huge wads of phelgm. That's your lungs saying: "Don't BREATHE anymore of this crap." You may be also suffering from asthma. Children of smokers are much more likely to be asthmatic than children of non-smokers. Exposure to smoke causes the tiny alveoli to contract, causing inflammation, causing further contractions. When enough of that happens your lungs become filled with gunk and pneumonia is the next likely complication. -- Bobby G. |

The research on this is so rich and deeply verified that it should be a cause for Child Protective Serviceds to intervene in a case where children in a home are exposed to tobacco smoke. I think the Libertarian in you is sadly confused. You are breaking the First Law of self-preservation by allowing addicts to vent poison where it can harm you. Would you support the rights of other to let down their pants and take a dump in your living room? I thought not. Yet, except for the smell and the cost of the cleanup, you would not be harmed as you would if they smoked in your living room. So you stay away from your favorite club or restaurant because the addicts fill the room with their fumes. I was on the barricades in California over 20 years ago in the first struggles for non-smokers' rights.

TDD I never understood it either. I wouldn't have known anything about cancer as a teenager, but is still stunk and caused coughing when around smokers. In the middle of the last century when I was a child, nobody knew any better about the dangers of smoking. Is that why they were called "coffin nails" at least as far back as the '20s? Both my parents were Regular Army during WWII so like the majority of adults at the time, they smoked like choo-choo trains. I could not breath, I wasn't a snot nosed kid, I was green slime kid. It was constantly coming out of me and when I was 10 or 11, I was put in the hospital for the obligatory tonsillectomy that was SOP at the time. Doctors found that my tonsils and adenoids were so swollen and inflamed that it was blocking my breathing. I can't hate the adults who exposed me to such airborne poison because they had no idea they were harming me but I sure can resent it. There is no excuse these days to expose children to tobacco smoke. :-( TDD |

I actually have discussed smoking with lawmakers when they're guests on talk radio shows and related my story to get their response so a great many people can hear it. The media can be a wonderful resource to put a bug in a politician's ear. I am glad that smoking is becoming culturally unacceptable with fewer and fewer people falling into the drug induced habit. I remember back when almost everyone smoked cigarettes, I was a kid and I thought it was stupid then. ^_^ TDD |

You get to ride a bicycle and breathe into tubes and stuff. If you're lucky, it will be an attractive female health worker that hooks you up. While it's entirely natural to be severely irritated by all of the things you mentioned, IIRC, burning heat applied to refrigerant, even in trace amounts, generates chlorine compounds that damages lungs. Not as well as phosgene (COCL2 - IIRC - aw, heck, I'll go to Google . . . ) Uses: Phosgene - COCl2 is used in organic synthesis, in manufacture of dyes, pharmaceuticals, herbicides, insecticides, synthetic foams, resins, and polymers. Phosgene is a lung irritant and extremely toxic. +++ It is also produced in the presence of refrigerants that are drawn through a heat source, refrigeration technicians should take extreme caution and prevent the exposure by making sure that smoking is avoided in the presence of refrigerants and preventing inhalation of the gas when soldering or brazing. +++ Also called CARBONYL CHLORIDE, a colourless, chemically reactive, highly toxic gas having an odour like that of musty hay, used in making organic chemicals, dyestuffs, polycarbonate resins, and isocyanates for making polyurethane resins. It first came into prominence during World War I, when it was used, either alone or mixed with chlorine, against troops. ++++ Inhalation causes severe lung injury +++, the full effects appearing several hours after exposure. First prepared in 1811, phosgene is manufactured by the reaction of carbon monoxide and chlorine in the presence of a catalyst. It can be formed by the thermal decomposition of chlorinated hydrocarbons; e.g., when carbon tetrachloride (q.v.) is used as a fire extinguisher. Gaseous phosgene, which has a density about three and one-half times that of air, liquefies at a temperature of 8.2° C (46.8° F); it is usually stored and transported as the liquid under pressure in steel cylinders or as a solution in toluene. With water, phosgene reacts to form carbon dioxide and hydrochloric acid. http://www.c-f-c.com/specgas_products/phosgene.htm Dumb kids like me that used to light matches to things like Lysol, with refrigerant-like propellants have breathed in a lot of that stuff and killed lung tissue. It has a very, very nasty characteristic smell and I've smelled it when I've had any A/C brazing done. You need to meet up with an oximeter soon, dude. It will come with a sleep study or a pulmonary workup or you could even buy one on Ebay. They've been getting cheaper every year. A finger clip device that IIRC read the oxygen level in you blood through the redness of your hemoglobin. The best thing my mother ever did for me was to nag me to leave one of my very early jobs as chem. QC at a local photofinisher - especially when I brought home the clothes that got eaten by a nitric acid spill. Remember the creature's blood in Alien(s)? Just as fast on clothes. Here one second, pssst! Gone except for any polyester threads. It took a few seconds longer to eat through my boot. Long enough to get it off and that was all that mattered. It wasn't really QC, I also had to mix the 50 gallons vats of developers, fixers and stabilizers, which meant dumping a 1 gallon brown glass Kodak bottle into a huge stainless tank. The trick was to swirl it around to get a vortex going inside the bottle. Otherwise it glugged and spit concentrated formaldehyde everywhere. I think that job lasted six months. One of my longer runs. -- Bobby G. |
