your signature does help. remember that guys, every signature matters! the more petitions they good, the more people that are involved, the more organizations that are involved the more they will understand that we're not going away!
As a response to your cocky post, the first thing your post did is make me feel like this is not the type of person i want representing something i believe in!!!Second thing, I am a member of CASSAA and I've written my congressman prior to signing this petition!!! Have you written yours? Are you a member of CASSA?? I feel like every action I can take to fight for what i believe in is a step in the right direction and that no action is too small to ignore when it comes to this topic!!! Grow up and Lose the attitude and post positive messages encouraging people to take every action they can instead of criticizing people for trying to make a difference!!!

I want to sign it.... I do... But i absolutely hate the wording of it and how it is not addressing the recent events the PV industry is facing right now. I just feel like a petition would do more good if it was addressing some of the real problems, like the FDA trying to ban internet sales. Also if we keep saying "Oh ya e-ciggs can help people quit!" as opposed to calling them an alternative then electronic cigarettes may end up being treated as NRT which nobody wants. If it is treated as an NRT then the FDA has more pull to ruin it for everyone, because then BP gets to step in and ruin it. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my understanding of the scenario. Not trying to be a debbie downer. Sorry guys.
Please, PLEASE... for the love of... DO sign this. If this gets passed, non face to face sale of "tobacco products" which PVs are included (roar!!) get BANNED --- Regulations.gov

I just want to add in a little about the division that seems to exist in this thread.
Sure the FDA is moving legally to ban all non-face-to-face sales of electronic cigarettes, and the deadline to get your voice sent with them to be heard in the courts is the 8th of this month (ugh ... Thursday
).
We also need public awareness. In my opinion, petitions, polls, etc in the public arenas will help to increase public awareness and support from even non-smokers. Everybody knows a smoker. I have friends that browse through petitions just to see what there is to help support, and there are plenty of people who do this.
Anybody, doing anything to help, is an asset. We will never all agree on everything, but we can all work together. We are all a mere six people away from each other, so the more we all do, the more likely we can help to persuade the people of importance that any ban on e-cigs would be harmful.
As an example, Craig Robinson (Michelle Obama's brother) works at the University where I live. My office manager's daughter works there. One of my "six" to the president: me > coworker > family > coworker > family > husband (president)
