    FDA Lorillard comments to the FDA deeming regs

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this just advocating for measures against counterfeitting?

    Tobacco bonds threatened by electronic cigarettes / Jul 2014

    Thank you both :) I'd have to lean more toward Kent's second post claiming 2.5 million. Rolygate's estimate is partly based on the known number of vapers in the U.K. and extrapolated to take into account the U.S. population. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the U.K. has policies in place that...

    FDA Extremely well done (and not yet available) FDA comment

    Ha ha :laugh: The regulations they propose are simple manufacturing standards to ensure safety, nothing more, nothing less. They are actually quite mild in comparison to standards I've seen proposed in other comments. I like this part: Not only is this regulatory structure contrient to the...

    FDA Extremely well done (and not yet available) FDA comment

    At the bottom of page 7: I would like to urge FDA to reject portions of the proposed rule that are not appropriate for the protection of public health, and add new sections that would protect public health. Yes, it is worth it to read further :) it does get better.

    Sick of being demonized

    It is really hard to argue with cold turkeys sometimes :closedeyes: they quit the most socially acceptable, and hardest, way, so they're the ones who are the most likely to assert that anyone can do it. It really isn't fair, because nicotine affects everyone in different ways, and you can't...

    The Hill article on FDA comments

    I don't think it makes sense to compare the docket comments to the entire U.S. population. You still have to take into account the number of the population who are children, the number who are in nursing homes or in long-term hospitalization, the number in prison, etc... Even as a percentage...

    New study has some very interesting information on e-cig users

    I absolutely love this part: What does the average e-cig smoker [sic] do for fun? They go out. These e-cig users are 11% more likely to attend a concert/live theater and 56% more likely to go to a bar or night club compared to all adults. In terms of sports activities, they are more likely to...

    Tobacco bonds threatened by electronic cigarettes / Jul 2014

    Question: Where did you get that estimate from? Last I heard the count was only 1 million...

    FDA Comments by Bill Godshall and Smokefree Pennsylvania urge FDA to reject Deeming Regulation, correct fear mongering claims about e-cigs

    I have to take issue with you on this one. Our esteem in Bill Godshall was not freely given, it was earned. He has decades of experience in advocating for harm reduction and has been very helpful to our community over the years. There is a rather large difference between trusting someone...

    FDA Lorillard comments to the FDA deeming regs

    It wouldn't be difficult to place a tiny thermometer near the coil and attach that to the battery so that when the temperature gets too high, the battery shuts off. That would require, however, that the battery (or mod) and coil be designed to fit together, and it would make for a patentable...

    FDA 8/8/14 Comment/Letter to FDA by 29 state attorneys general

    That first article you posted was a little aggravating ("the FDA does not support this wah wah wah!"), but the study goes to show that doctors generally are smart enough to think for themselves. I have told many of my medical professionals that I quit smoking using e-cigarettes and I have yet...

    Warning! Flawed Stingray Clones! MUST SEE FOR STINGRAY CLONE USERS!

    Update: I have been corresponding with My Freedom Smokes for the last couple days. The customer support rep, upon seeing my picture, showed concern and said he would forward it to the guy who handles returns/exchanges. I will update further when things happen. I went back and looked at the...

    Wall wart question...wrong forum, I know...

    Fwiw, it's generally best not to charge batteries like that when you're sleeping :) it's better to charge while you're awake so you can keep an eye on it just in case.

    Sounds like a plan to me! :D

    Medical officer in Toronto reccomends treating vaping like smoking

    I just made this comment and ripped the article to shreds :) Several studies show that smoking is 100 times more dangerous than e-cigarettes. Not only that, but any time I see someone publicly state that e-cigarettes are dangerous, I notice that they misconstrued the facts in the studies they...

    Tobacco and Ebola?

    That's because they don't need to worry about us, they've already cured smoking addiction! You can pick it up at the pharmacy for $60, and it comes in cherry flavor too! :w00t:

    This thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/media-general-news/591329-dow-chemical-refusing-supply-propylene-glycol-e-cigarette-industry.html I don't know what he's talking about with the batteries though.

    FDA Comments by Bill Godshall and Smokefree Pennsylvania urge FDA to reject Deeming Regulation, correct fear mongering claims about e-cigs

    I concur. If you have a legitimate criticism, it can only help the community if you share it.

    Medical officer in Toronto reccomends treating vaping like smoking

    The doctor is conflating and exaggerating all the studies he's apparently aware of on e-cigarettes. He doesn't seem to fully understand them himself. Given his professional position, one wonders about conflicts of interest there...
