Colorado Pot Tax Proving More Lucrative Than Expected

Given that hookah smoke feels significantly more mild and moist than cigarette smoke, volume alone is likely a poor measure of health impact.

OT: "Hookah is also called [...] hubble-bubble [...]"

Citation needed.

They provide a citation!

There are multiple uses of it in Google search results.

So they did! Their first citation [1] from the American Lung Association even takes it a step further:

"Other common names for waterpipes include [...], and hubbly-bubbly."

They even cite a study entitled "Hubble-bubble (water pipe) smoking: levels of nicotine and cotinine in plasma, saliva and urine". [2]

This rabbit hole goes deep!
