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

    I finally succeeded in reading through the whole thing, and it is superb! :thumb: Fantastic job Bill! I appreciate the time you put into drawing up such a richly detailed and complex history of the movement against harm reduction. This is ammo we will need for a long time to come! Thank you...

    The final countdown to August 8th - your FDA comments NEEDED

    You forgot the pharmaceutical companies, who want us to quit with only their methods so they keep their profits and will pay off any legislator or government agency to get the job done.... they are the worst of all of these imo...

    Request for a new Call to Action

    I don't want to exclude them either, but we have a lot of web-based media, and it's still just viewed as "e-cig enthusiast" by the general public. Plus, there is a large proportion of the population that still gets most of their news offline, and many of them won't trust online news. And it's...

    Request for a new Call to Action

    I thought Charlie Rose and the News Hour were on late at night?... man it's been a long time since I've watched tv... The Wall Street employee may be a good shot, if she can get a decent spot in the journal. I'm sure they'd be interested in the real economic impact of the deeming regs, versus...

    Request for a new Call to Action

    I like that approach :) especially if we had a few knowledgeable people, like Dr. Siegel or Dr. Farsalinos available for interview :) I could see the BBC picking up a story like that for late night news on PBS :)

    Board of Health explores regulating e-cigarettes

    Well they might wanna start by educating themselves about e-cigarettes and go from there... :facepalm: cripe.

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

    Yes, I see... and again, :facepalm: I still wonder if the regulations can be overturned in court. Does anyone have an opinion on that? I don't know much about law, but there's a lot in the deeming that just smells fishy to me. I wonder if much of it is even legal. Or if it can be overturned...

    Request for a new Call to Action

    I love the idea, but the problem is that every major source of news outside the internet - newspapers, tv, radio, magazines - is owned and at least partially controlled by someone, and if that someone feels that the story does not serve his best interest, the story either will not run or will be...

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

    You mean, congress has to do something in order to keep the regulations from becoming final? Yup, we're doomed :facepalm:

    FDA The "flavors & kids" thing again

    Yeah but they're lawyers, lawyers are often slimy ;) There is quite the difference in opinion between a :D lawyer :D and a :evil: judge :evil:

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

    I was just poking around My Freedom Smokes' website and saw that they sell stingray clones too. Anyone who's bought an MFS clone should check to see if it has this defect!

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

    I contacted my vendor and asked them to either replace the bottom switch or replace the mod with one that has proper venting. We'll see what they say. As for the nemesis clone, it is fully assembled and back in its box, I will not touch it until the issue is resolved. Thank you OP for posting...

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

    It is referred to as the "MFS Nemesis" in the product description, so I assume My Freedom Smokes is at least taking responsibility for it. Should I also request that they refund me for the batteries and charger I bought for it as well, seeing as how without that sale I may not be able to buy a...

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

    Interestingly, this video highlighted a potential issue with my clone. Only I have a nemesis clone. I bought a black nemesis clone from My Freedom Smokes on sale last week. I received it on Friday, and I've been vaping on it continually ever since with no issues at all. However... I saw...

    is my brick and mortar overpriced?

    I agree, but not everyone has a good B&M. Some are real shady, like the OP's shop where they don't even know their own equipment.

    is my brick and mortar overpriced?

    Yeah get the money back for that battery, you definitely got ripped off. It's common for B&M's to have a small selection and to overprice a little, but $20 for an ICR 18650 is out of control.

    is my brick and mortar overpriced?

    Good point, he made it sound like he just got the battery there... OP did you get both the mod and the battery for $20, or just the battery?

    is my brick and mortar overpriced?

    The battery sounds like a huge rip off, I would demand my money back if I were you (you can get efest IMR 18650's for less than $10 online). Experienced forum members now highly recommend against using ICR batteries - due to the high voltage e-cig usage requires, we need to be very concerned...

    FDA Why some folks didn't comment, apparently

    Thank you, iamthevoice, for your 5 minute sacrifice :D it is much appreciated. I disagree, I believe you could've contributed much to the discussion despite not being an ex-smoker :) you could've commented on the flavor bans, talked about you friends (like us :D) who've quit smoking using...
