I recommend you take 2 of those pills and call me in the morning.

Did you not read the friggin' review - very informative.
Like hog says, you stick a shot glass of distilled water in the humidor for a couple of days until the humidity stabilizes and thats all. No need to buy any humidipaks from Boveda or anybody else and 3 weeks is a little long for simple humidification of the wood inside a humidor. Dr. Stogie thinks that his way is better then thats just fine by me. He wants to tell others about it, thats just fine by me. But if he has any relationship whatsoever with the company, including getting them at discount, he should have pointed this out up front. Now I know reviewing a product like this is not held to the same ethical standards as reviewing grants for NIH, but the same principle applies. I am certain that he was only trying to help others out with his post, as was Dave .... unlike your unrelentant torrent of unmitigated drivel.

Do yourself a favor, and the rest of us too, and take a look at the information in an objective way, instead of spouting off about some illusionary moral dilemma, which appears to exist only in your head, based on the nature of the stated relationship between Dr. Stogiefresh and boveda.
The relationship was only disclosed after it was brought up by somebody else. There is a CLEAR conflict of interest when you promote something you get sell, you get free, or you get at a discount. That is not illusionary.

Better yet, before that, review the product yourself and then give us your oh so enlightened view of things. You're just making an unfounded assumption about the personal character of Dr. Stogiefresh, as, from what I can tell, you know neither him nor the people at Boveda. What the hell do you know about the validity of the information; nothing, I'm going to venture.
I see you're progressing nicely in your class (how to look and act like a snide dick, 100). As a graduate of that class, I can only recommend furthering your education with the 200 class next semester as well.

If you do know something of value, make a comment about it instead of something about which you know nothing.
You would be well advised to heed your own advice.

Please quit stifling reviewing members (at the risk of sounding hypocritical, I say this, as I am trying to stifle you.) As far as I can tell, you are just a prejudiced MF, who hasn't lent anything of value to this site by your comment, here.
Bringing up a point of COI on a review IS of value.

Quote:
If the truth of the information can stand alone, just let it be. We don't need your "every point of view" or complete transparency approach, which you seem to think is going to somehow change the information presented, based on your assumptions. Instead it just quells the spirit and enthusiasm members like Dr. Stogiefresh bring to this site.
God ... did I just read all the way through your tedious post? I think I deserve a reward. I'm smoking a Boli tonight on the way home.
