Actually, it's not surprising in the least that the FDA would wait until now to issue their warning letter...they were waiting for the press to become favorable to the PV again, and then they issued their warnings and their press release to tell the world how 'wonderful a regulatory body' they...
What makes you think that BP or BT aren't actively running studies and trials to test the effectiveness of the PV? If I were either of them, though, I wouldn't announce my activities - might set my competition to developing the same tech and a race to market-share would ensue.
Just because...
With Quaker and Lipton, like with General Mills last year, the FDA gave these companies a choice - EITHER remove the marketing claims OR submit a new drug application to prove them. With PV's, the FDA has NOT given anyone a choice - it's NDA or nothing...There have been no overtures by the FDA...
It's not the purchase of mods that's got me eating so slim, Wiz (last mod bought was the Fistpack in May-ish, which never leaves my side), it's my schedule. I went swimming after work (love doing my laps!) stopped long enough to play with the kitty for a sec, then headed on over to the...
I've been the wicked witch for so long, the avatar's grown on me - pshttt - I even got my chuck with this avatar picture on it.
For supper tonight - very minimalistic - just a handful of cherry tomatoes and some rye bread & a schmear of butter. No photos required :D
People have been conditioned over decades to accept regulation - that someone else can do their thinking for them, and they don't have to then think for themselves...society, as a whole (and I'm talking the silent majority here, not the vocal minority) is actively, and willingly, selling itself...
Allow me to offer another reason why the smoking quit rates have leveled off....
Perhaps, their efforts in education and ostricization have winnowed out all those who were on the fence over quitting - the rates have flattened, because all that's left are the die hard (and DIE should be...
I had a pasta salad tonight - one of my favorite concoctions! Plenty of fresh cucumber, tomato, bell peppers, and cauliflower went into the bowl of pasta, cheese, and dressing. I'll be eating on it all week.
Wins in the battle, certainly, but as long as those who oppose us are willing to toss obsene amounts of money into the losing position, we're a long way from winning the war.
Every negative article that comes out, every back-door ban in a local municipality, every layperson who is convinced...
Whoa....
Well, this is certainly weird.... what kind of bizarro forum-world have I just jumped into? Anyone else not liking the new look of ECF? :confused:
Because smokers have taken stronger and more stringent regulation and restriction with their bellies up for so long, they think the same tactics will work on PV's. They'll learn better - we ain't going belly up for 'em.
Well, this will get the ball rolling - I've sent an opening email to Michelle. Let's see if I get any response. I will copy it out and send it via snail mail and fax tomorrow from work.
My ex (whom I was married to for 15 years) is a hard-core Lutheran. One of the reasons I really never 'came out' for such a long time - I didn't want to admit to him that my belief system was walking different paths then his. Now, he never forced me to worship with him, but he did insist that...
Ooooo - the Wizzy stick. There's another thing to dredge up from the past adventures of Emerald :D
Or was it called the Wizzy Buff? Yea, that's it....wonder what thread THAT was in???
Wiz couldn't afford my prices for a 'smackdown' :D - and besides, I wouldn't hurt Tauki - he's a sweetheart IRL...no matter how much of an ****** he claims to be online.
Well, his was very well proportioned..I had a bit of envy myself seeing it...
But I had to understand that even though my own equipment wasn't quite as nice, it was certainly good enough for the task at hand.
