Seems someone at the Huffington Post Science Division hasn't been doing their homework on the most addictive properties of analogs. IMO, he took the pro forma information contained in the news release, and regurgitated it. Nicotine is NOT the most addictive substance in analogs, and we've known that for a while. And while he does talk about the possible move to lower the nicotine content and analogs, he quotes the person saying "adding other content that would make lowering nicotine useless" based on addictiveness. They fail to mention that content is already THERE.

It is heartening to see the FDA is now doing studies on nicotine, but I hope those scientific studies separate nicotine from tobacco - or rather, nicotine from the marketed analogs, to get a true test.
