OK, I finally got through all the posts in this thread. Good to see brains at work, united for a common goal!
A couple of things in the goals list are starting to duplicate.
4. Serve as Users Advocate in efforts to discourage the sale of personal vaporizers and supplies to minors as well as joining existing efforts to discourage the use of nicotine products by minors.
and the last bullet of 5. Reporting attempts of illegal sales to minors to the proper authorities.
Different wording, same idea. And the wording in 5 - shouldn't it be purchase(s) instead of sales? And, "illegal sales" - they aren't illegal yet, just ill-advised.
Then #2. To maintain a web-based community for individual users and their shared experiences with these products by testimonials, photos and multimedia clips.
and
8. Facilitate a social support network for people who choose smoke-free or harm reducing alternatives to improve their personal health.
I think the 2 can be combined into one goal. Does 2 need to be so very specific "testimonials, photos and multimedia clips."?
How about
2. To maintain a web-based community and facilitate a social support network for people who choose smoke-free or harm reducing alternatives to improve their personal health by discussing alternatives and comparing stories.
Or something like that. I'm sure it can be worded better.
In another thread I voiced concern about the name of the org "Consumer Advocates for Smokeless Alternatives Association" and not having the group deal with alternatives other than our PVs. I think that has been adequately addressed in this thread.
I, for one, will be using other alternatives if I am unable to obtain parts and supplies for my PVs. I do.not.want.to go back to burning tobacco and inhaling smoke!
I think this is coming together well! Thanks to all of you!
