Richard Gourlain Jan 2d 1999,
The members of the Gourlain family were the first in France to file a lawsuit of tobacco victims against a tobacco company, SEITA that became ALTADIS after its privatization (later sold to Imperial Tobacco). The lawsuit was filed in December 1996. Richard died on January 9, 1999, seven days after his wife Lucette shot the video. He was 49 years old. On November 20, 2003, the French Supreme Court exonerated the tobacco company from any responsibility.
Wow; I didn't know that. The perception here in America is that France is such a nanny state, you would have thought for sure that the tobacco companies would have lost. Perhaps paying off judges is easier to do in France.

I'm a fan of the Ego it's the first I purchased after my 808. Had it alomst a year with daily charging and it's still going strong. I just purchased the mega ego in pink for my wife.Lately though I have been using a Leo, it has a direct mini usb charge port so you can use it as a pass through or unplug it and take it with you. I use an adapter for 510 carto's and it's some of the best vaping yet.
