If you read further, one of the pilots did not want the vapor to be recirculated into the passenger cabin and be caught “vaping”, mistakenly flipped a switch which caused a rapid reduction in cabin air pressure and an emergency alarm to go off, and put the plane into a forced dive to 6,000 feet. Result was two imbeciles fired and 130 B-737 passenger seats needing extreme cleaning or replacement.

“Vaping isn’t smoking”
Your point?

If you read the headline you will see my point.

I flew China in 2001 and the people ignore no smoking signs and seatbelt signs.
On the streets, traffic lights just seemed like suggestions to the people.
