    IVAQS Project Briefing

    This is not a war, Yolanda. This is people expressing opinions about about IVAQS. Opinions are just that . . . opinions. The way I see it, reasonable minds can disagree about the value of IVAQS. Reasonable minds can also disagree about whether the "mistakes" that have been made along the...

    IVAQS Project Briefing

    CASAA is no longer collecting funds for IVAQS nor is it suggesting people donate to support it. In my mind, that means it is no longer "supporting" IVAQS. By the same token, I am not aware that CASAA has taken a position denouncing IVAQS. To suggest that concerns associated with IVAQS are...

    IVAQS Project Briefing

    It's not all about personal issues, Yolanda. There are some people who have very legitimate concerns about IVAQS and NVC and much (although not all) of the criticism is justified, imo. It's a shame that a project that began with such widespread community support and enthusiasm has...

    Concord, CA about to include e-cigs in outdoor smoking ban

    I sent a PM to Geoff at Tasty Vapor. While I do not know him personally, he seems like a stand-up guy. Hopefully, he'll be willing to help. If he's in the Bay Area, Concord is right there in his backyard. As we saw with Pierce County/Tacoma, vendors who choose to get involved can make a...

    Delaware County, Indiana Call to Action! (E-cigs in smoking ban)

    Woots! Awesome news. Seems like we're on a roll here. Thanks to everyone who took the time to write or call . . . it clearly made a difference. :wub: I'll definitely be sending some thank you emails tomorrow. :)

    A tribute to Trog and The Screwdriver

    Is it very bad that I laughed when I heard you say, "Prof. Blog"? :laugh: I do want to say, though, that I was dripping with my Screwdriver almost from the beginning. We didn't have commercial drip tips back then, so I just tail-piped. (That is using the atomizer with no mouthpiece at all.)...

    *WATCH HERE* Updates to the Florida Vapestock June 10-11, 2011 Event *Peace, Love & Vaping*

    You're not kidding . . . I was thinking that in spite of my optimistically light packing on the front end, I might wind up having to ship back liquids. GREAT idea to have some USPS boxes available for folks, especially the flat-rate boxes. It seems as if you Florida peeps have thought of...

    *WATCH HERE* Updates to the Florida Vapestock June 10-11, 2011 Event *Peace, Love & Vaping*

    Vapestock is only DAYS away . . . can hardly stand it! I've already got my suitcase out and partially packed. I typically travel with a pile of liquids. However, given how many vendors will be there (and the many who will have sent freebies), I'm going to travel light on my liquid and...

    St. Louis, MO: Regional Monthly Meetings

    I don't know why, but I had it in my head we were talking about this past weekend. I'm going to be out of town this coming weekend at Vapestock in Tampa, along with two of our other St. Louis peeps. I don't return until Sunday evening around 6:00. :( If something gets planned for Sunday...

    A tribute to Trog and The Screwdriver

    Great show last night. The Screwdriver was my first mod more than 2 years ago. It was so liberating having a device that would give me several hours of battery life . . . with a Screwdriver and an extra battery or two, I could confidently go out and about all day. It was a game-changer for a...

    St. Louis, MO: Regional Monthly Meetings

    If you want to try to set something up for this weekend, Cassie, we can try to let folks know . . . it's short notice, but I know that folks will try to make it if they can. :) PM me. :)

    The Safe Sig Runs Full-Page Ad in the New York Times addressed to WHO

    This +1,000,000. In my opinion, it's just an advertising ploy on the part of The Safe Cig . . . the name kind of says it all. :facepalm:

    A proposed way to separate scams from the good stuff

    You're in luck . . . CASAA members meet everywhere. :laugh: Actually, we meet on the internet via Team Speak. :2cool: As for meetings in your area, the St. Louis folks gather monthly at Side Pockets in St. Charles (3rd Saturday of the month, 4:30 p.m. until whenever). It's not a CASAA...

    A proposed way to separate scams from the good stuff

    I personally would prefer for CASAA not to certify or endorse specific vendors at this point. In my opinion, it'd simply be too labor-intensive. CASAA has no "employees"--just volunteers, and not nearly enough volunteers, truth be told. :( There's no way we would have the manpower to monitor...

    “An hour with ECF - Part 2” -- Blogtalk Radio, Sunday 9pm EC

    Thoroughly enjoyed the show . . . and a huge thanks to Avid Vaper : Electronic Cigarettes, E-Liquid and Accessories for donating a HeliX as well as to V4L for all the goodies. That was an unexpected treat. :wub:

    Tobacco Ban Goes Too Far

    You do realize, though, that the newer generation of smokeless products don't involve spitting, right? For example, neither snus nor dissolvables require spitting. :) But even if spitting is involved, is that really such a big deal? Most folks I've encountered who use those types of products...
