    FDA approved e-cig?

    Off the top of my head, I'm not aware of any inhaler that contains a vitamin. Closest would be something like Zicam, which contains Zinc (a mineral). Of course, we all know what happened with that... I'll keep an eye out though.

    WTF Commercial for a smoking cessation prod on TV!!

    See my post above. I can't vouch for the commercial (haven't seen it) but as far as the site goes, all cessation claims are made for the "program", which is a combination of taking their pill and a support group. The pill itself is a supplement, a support group is generally considered a boon to...

    Major Cigarette makers sue over new tobacco law

    Usually they point to ads posted at around 3' off the ground at gas stations, and billboards near school zones. It's not the content of the ad exactly, it's the placement.

    WTF Commercial for a smoking cessation prod on TV!!

    Well, now that we've given their site way too many hits... I'm no expert, but it looks to me like they're getting away with it (for now) because of a few things: 1) There's no nicotine. 2) They don't say anything about ceasing to be addicted to nicotine (addiction being a disease). What...

    E-letter submitted to Tobacco Control

    Semi-related, figured here's as good as anywhere (since I think I originally posted in the SE v FDA thread and I don't want to clutter that one any more than it is): I wrote the Attorney General of New York a couple of weeks ago, today I checked my mail for the first time in a while, and...

    ECO - Electronic Cigarette Organization

    As I posted in the SE v FDA thread, it's probably too late for a fledgling organization to influence that case, so if this is going to happen, we need to look to the next battle. Come up with the worst-case scenario, what needs to happen for that worst-case to come to fruition, and prepare...

    I, for one, would invite him to post here and engage in an intelligent discourse on the subject. I think we could learn a bit from each other. So, if anyone from ASH is reading this, please invite Mr. Banzhaf to create an account and post here presenting his view. I also encourage all members of...

    Ohio is clearly east of the mid-line of the United States, therefore making it Mid-east. It's right next to Pennsylvania, for crying out loud! :p
