    Smokers - just vape if you want to. For God's sake, don't be cuckolded twice!

    Exactly! And the fact that we vapers are quite unashamed of our enjoyment of vaping, and assertive of our right to vape -- i.e., that we're not meekly buckling under -- must be driving them mad! :laugh:

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    I'm waiting [looking forward w/ glee is more like it] for the nannies' outrage at powdered alcohol being used to circumvent the liquor licensing laws... (Hop into Denny's for brunch, order a glass of tomato juice, whip out a packet of powdered vodka, and voila...) :laugh:

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Without doing any fact-checking, I believe that most legislative bodies have procedural rules that establish a deadline for submitting amendments. Theoretically this is to give legislators time to read, understand, and come to a decision on them. In actuality, the deadlines are often...

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Definitely smelly, definite sneaky, but unfortunately not a new tactic. Slipping in nefarious, ambiguously worded amendments to favor an agenda unrelated to or in opposition to the original author's intent is a long-standing politic trick. That the amendment which basically rewrote the entire...

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    I will say this, from my personal observations during years on Capitol Hill: A large number of elected legislators in Congress come from wealth (one of the primary ways to finance their campaigns), and once in Congress, they have large staffs to filter their contacts w/ constituents and the...

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    Excellent points made in all posts. I would hazard a guess that most players in Tobacco Control, Big Govt., and Big Pharma are drinkers, so no, I don't see the likelihood of any outrage at this new product. BTW, from my research earlier, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau is under...

    Carl Phillips: FDA reveals its views on ecigs in new publication

    I don't see Tobacco Control making any distinction between nic and 0-nic products in their prohibition attempts (even tho nicotine is their great satan). After all, even vaping 0-nic "looks like smoking," which is one of the few arguments left to them after their "science" is debunked...

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    I'm not a drinker, so I can't really appreciate the various pros and cons of this new product for adults. However, I can see kids' eyes lighting up everywhere at the prospect and all that's implied for curious but undeveloped minds... :facepalm: According to the article: No mention of FDA...

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    My email to my representative said that the bill, as originally written, was a good thing, as it simply restricted sales to minors and gave the state jurisdiction on covering laws. The late amendment (Section 11) restricting ALL sales to line-of-sight, however, was extremely ambiguous in its...

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Indeed, you've posed the relevant questions. If it passes as is, I would expect it immediately to be challenged in court. (Remember, SFATA is based in So. Florida.)

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Have just spent a few hours reviewing the history of H0169. As far as I can determine, the bill was amended to include the Section 11 language on March 26. At least that's when the amendment was published. The amendment was written by Rep. Artiles. Here's the current status page: FL H0169 |...

    News story says 50 complaints submitted to FDA about e-cigs in past year

    This is 114-page pdf file of "adverse event reports" to FDA. http://www.fda.gov/downloads/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/OfficeofMedicalProductsandTobacco/AbouttheCenterforTobaccoProducts/UCM393323.pdf After a quick scan, I agree with Bill's view:

    FDA says TVECA claims it has a copy of FDA's e-cig regulatory proposal

    At no time (in public, at least) has the FDA denied they released a copy of the deems to TVECA. They simply say "as a matter of policy the FDA does not..." Obviously someone at FDA *did* slip it to TVECA. Well, that's politics, that's SOP inside the Beltway. Not at all surprised; I expect...

    News story says 50 complaints submitted to FDA about e-cigs in past year

    "Fifty complaints to the FDA" calls to mind "Calls to Poison Control Centers." Anyone can register a complaint w/ the FDA; anyone can call a PCC -- about any little thing. Doesn't mean squat without more information. But it sounds scary, no? Seems to me like the FDA is jumping on the...

    A vapers morning

    I have two vision spinners that, when I'm charging them, somehow don't cause the light on the charger to turn from red to green when done, but when I take them off the charger and put them back on again, the light stays green, meaning they *were* fully charged. I don't know if this is a...
