Talking Well

I have 38 801 attys /25 801 batterys /150 empty new 801 carts, 1.5 liters of 36mg liquid + Plus a Prodigy (801)V1 with 4 cr123a batteries and a Puresmoker Passthrough with 801 adapter. Is that enough for 2 years I just hate to run out of crap, so i stockpiled just in case. A ban is wrong, yet not preparing for the worst is ignorant, when it means your health(smoking analogs again)

Except that the choice isn't between PVs or analogues. It's not a black and white situation. You can try other methods, quit smoking altogether, buy vaporizers off a black market (assuming one emerges if a ban comes down) and so forth and so on.

Hello everyone. I’m new to the ecigarette world and also to this forum. In my decision of which product to buy (Joye 510) and also where to buy (E-Smokeytreats.com) with great feedback from all of the members and video reviews by Terraphon (Youtube handle – thanks by the way, your reviews are awesome and amusing) I feel like I could find a home in this community. I also feel that this and many other communities are in jeopardy.
Like most of you I have been smoking for 14+ years and tried quitting. Each time I failed not only because of the nicotine addiction but also the physical addiction and the realization that I LIKED it. I enjoy smoking when on a phone call or working. Thanks to the ecig I can continue to enjoy this without the side effects and knowing in the back of my mind that it might hinder me from seeing my future children grow and have grand children. I feel so strongly about this product and where it will go that I’ve decided to step up and do all I can to see it grow in popularity and social acceptance. Many people complain and talk about stock piling reserves in case the FDA closes its fist on us.
We need to be heard. We, as the believers in this product, need to educate the public. How? By any means necessary.
I am a filmmaker from NY who would like to produce a documentary on Ecigs. I want to show the truth behind the product and bring the faces of those it’s helped (and those whose lives were saved by the product) into the light. I have the equipment and the know how to get it professionally and legitimately done but I need help from some members to make this happen.
I don’t want your money, I want your knowledge. Here’s what I need:
1) I need stories of people who have quit smoking (or drastically cut down) thanks to the ecig. I want to interview you/your family on camera.
2) I need facts:
a. What chemicals are in ecigs? (good and bad)
b. What research has been done? (positive and negative)
c. Who is trying to ban it and why (Let’s expose the hypocrisy)
d. Nicotine facts (good and bad)
3) I would also like vendors to showcase products and talk about how they make their juice and other such things.
4) ANYTHING YOU MIGHT SUGGEST
The documentary has to be honest, hence why I ask for the good and bad. We cannot get called out on our information as trying to slant the truth. We’re not like those trying to ban us and we won’t lie. This could be the perfect tool to introduce the public to the product and possibly help others. Will it work? Let’s hope so. If not, we tried another way to get ourselves heard.
Anyone willing to be interviewed, please be in the New York area as I can’t afford to fly all over the place though I’d like to. You can PM me and tell me your story. Anyone who feels they can help in anyway feel free to suggest how. Let’s make this happen and be quick about it! Time might just be running out!

Frankly, if done correctly, I think that you have an excellent idea, if you could find a venue. I had been smoking for 40 years and no matter what I tried couldn't quit. As a result, I now have COPD and my doctors told me that I was about a year away from carrying an oxygen bottle. At my last visit two weeks ago, after three months of PV'ing they were delighted to find my airways sound clear and my not constantly practically gasping for breath.

I am not in the New York area but I have some professional recording equipment and could contribute in that way somehow.

There will be a lot of people that will say that this method won't be effective, for one reason or another, but I am a child of the 60"s and have seen first-hand this type of grassroots endeavor grow into something much bigger.

People today are content to set back and do nothing or write a quick email. Sometimes, it seems that we have become a nation of sheep. Ask someone to hit the street and actually be heard is foreign to them.

Anyway, good idea and good luck! Any voiceover or audio testimonial you need I would be happy to contribute.
