But for me they are #1 issue of concern, and is what I care to speak most to. It is tiresome trying to figure this thing out (partly why...

    DR Farsalinos weighs in on the importance of flavors!

    The other thing I still can not comprehend......If we were limited to "tobacco" flavors only, who is to say what is acceptable?? Each liquid maker has their own take on tobacco flavors. Some are sweet, some are dry, some are Virginia, or burly. There are probably hundreds if not thousands of...

    FDA opens comment periods on two issues regarding Substantial Equivalence Requirements

    DR Farsalinos weighs in on the importance of flavors!

    For me??? I just don't know? I have hundreds of flavors in my cabinet. I use the majority of them, as I get bored quickly. Flavor restrictions would hurt new vapers more IMO. I remember going through a ton of different flavors and vendors, before I figured out what I REALLY liked and wanted...

    DR Farsalinos weighs in on the importance of flavors!

    I haven't seen this anywhere yet. I thought it was interesting! As always, Thank you Dr F for the good work you do! From the Study: On average they were using three different types of liquid flavours on a regular basis, with former smokers switching between flavours more frequently compared to...

    You are certainly entitled to your opinion. I have tried with patience to read this thread and your posts objectively. I find moving forward, my ignore button will be used for the first time. One too many cheap shots at those fighting ALL local, state and federal legislation on a volunteer...

    World Vaping Organisation.

    So, sounds to me that Congress' wishes were not met?? There has not been any follow up on this? From your link:Subjecting established and thoroughly studied low-risk smokeless tobacco products to the entire gamut of new testing described in the IOM report is unnecessary, expensive, and...

    Why the FDA can NOT make illegal E-Cigs (false concern), Usage Bans in Public are the REAL problem

    So I guess we are not conspiracy theorists after all huh?? And lets not forget Mitch Zellers previous job as a consultant working along side the pharmaceutical company(Glaxo-Smithkline). Oh and by the way, revolving door between FDA and BP as they regularly employ each other! Thanks for...

    GREAT article on the toxicity of nicotine!!

    I'm sure e-cigs threw a wrench into their plans. I don't see them changing anything to accommodate the ecig industry either. This is like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole!
