The Rest of the Story

And this is why when some responded to our proposal for a randomized behavioral study by arguing that such an approach was invalid and that we should do a survey instead, I viewed those responses as being unscientific and unsound. Instead, I believe what is truly behind these draconian opinions (draconian because they would throw out an entire line of potential evidence) is a bias towards electronic cigarettes. I'm not arguing that it is a conscious bias. It may be subconscious. But I don't believe that any objective scientist would argue for completely throwing out a randomized clinical study design and relying solely on survey evidence to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of a product such as electronic cigarettes.

It may take a Freedom of Interest Act (FOIA) request to obtain this information from OSH, or wherever this "secret" information resides, which is quite a shame given the fact that one of the major points made in the Surgeon General's report is its criticism of the unethical behavior of tobacco industry scientists who hid their financial relationships with the industry. It's sad that the federal government is condemning the past actions of scientists who hid financial connections with Big Tobacco, while it is engaging in the present action of hiding financial connections with Big Pharma.
