    With respect, if you see the hardware widely on sale, but you do not see it in use, your observations would seem to be incomplete.

    With respect....

    I saw lots of vape stores in Britain. I saw almost no vape stores or people vaping in Beijing or Shanghai.

    I spent 1971-75 in the Marine Corps including a year in Okinawa Japan. Lessons learned:
    1. Marine duties are boring - only during ordinary Marine Corps duties, did recreational drugs have any interest. We (me and fellow Marines) would use recreational drugs to get through the incredible, boring, daily duties. It was relief.
    2. Education and career are not recreational drug compatible - when working at my most intellectually challenging tasks, no recreational drug has any attraction. Learning something new far and away exceeds any recreational drug.
    I do not fault those who take the drug approach because I understand that daily life can be so boring, relief is needed. But in my case, learning something new, changing my understanding of the world, is so much better. I don't claim every individual would find the same ... enlightenment ... but it is my path.

    The only one I would kiss was not a smoker, thankfully.
    I did learn how to "pull" (harvest) some bright tobacco, though It was then strung up on sticks to be dried. I also helped pack the dried tobacco ready for auction.

    No. There are hard ciders, but this is an actual wine. It's easy, and it's amazing.

    I don't smoke, drink wise I have an average of a pint a month. When I lived and worked in central London I use to drink about 6 to 9 pints a week. Things changed when I moved up north and had to use the local public transport, nothing motivates you more to drive and not have a drink than queuing for 20mins for a bus in the cold / rain.

    A pint a month -- that's less than an ounce a day. EKKK.

    In my 20's a a young airman, it was often 9 pints per night. Fortunately, maturity developed in inverse proportion to my bank balance.

    I've got a brother-in-law who's firing up another every half hour or so. Really sad, expensive, punishing habit. :mad::(
