    FDA FDA deeming regulation proposals

    My first comment to any one who asks is they work. I then go on to explain that I'm a 53 year smoker who quit cigarettes by accident when I tried to cut down by using e-cigarettes. Seems to get their attention. :D:vapor:

    Someone on here had this for a signature line, can't remember who: "Life is a sexually transmitted disease and it is always fatal." :D:vapor:

    FDA My petition as a response to FDA

    While this may be meaningless at this point as we have 75 days of public comments to go before it's finalized, the quicker it hits the 100k point the more attention they will pay. It lets them know that we are watching and there's a bunch of people who care about this. There is an election...

    Wall Street Journal Article about FDA regulations to be relased Thursday 4/23/14

    POLITICS: Don't forget that one third of the senators and the entire house are up for election this fall. Find out who supports or is at least neutral on e-cigarettes and support them. This rule is going to be finalized in the middle of the next presidential election and another one third...

    News story says 50 complaints submitted to FDA about e-cigs in past year

    I don't usually quote myself but I came back to this post and clicked on AAs link looking for something that I thought I had seen on the pdf. The link took me to something that was not what I was looking at last night and made the above mean nothing as the pages referenced didn't match my...

    Brilliant spoof of the Durbin Report by Dr. Siegel: Anti-Smoking Groups and Policy Makers Attack Big Pharma for Targeting Kids with Flavored NRT

    When I read one of the ANTZ articles on flavors I just mentally replace e-cig with NRT or vodka to remind myself just how stupid they are. To bad the average person reading them doesn't do the same. :facepalm::vapor:

    The results of a study of 19000 E-Cigarette users

    This wasn't a study, it was a survey of e-cigarette users: Dr Fs title: (Bold is mine) The only real control on it was do you use e-cigarettes, if so please answer these questions. It is a great snapshot of e-cigarette use in the western world with a lot of good info. :2c::D:vapor:

    (Florida) Bill Would Block Electronic Cigarettes For Minors

    Same thing happened to the GA bill and I thought it was dead. Two days later someone picked it up off the table and it passed. Here is the sequence of events. Mar/26/2014 - House Sent to Governor Mar/20/2014 - Senate Passed/Adopted Mar/20/2014 - Senate Third Read Mar/20/2014 - Senate Taken from...

    Missouri bill (HB 1345) would ban sale of any “tobacco-derived product and vapor product” to a minor

    From the article, I read this as big pharma hasn't found a way to control them yet and they are going to lose a lot of money if they can't get them under their control. Hon Lik basically beat their multi-billion dollar research department to the draw and released them into the wild as a...

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    They may not get the chance, caught part of a blurb on the local CBS station news that the feds are going who in the Sam Hill OK'ed this. Sounded like it may die before it goes on sale :facepalm::vapor:

    Powdered Alcohol?!?

    I can think of so much just wrong about this having had employees over the last 30 years who thought it was a good idea to sip a little at work. Schools are removing soda machines and installing healthy juice machines, powdered vodka and OJ or V8 and no bottle to get rid of. I have to wonder who...

    FDA says TVECA claims it has a copy of FDA's e-cig regulatory proposal

    IMHO this was nothing more than TVECA letting us know that they are part of the in crowd. We really need to remember that when we see the regulations as they would not of had this if their input was not used to write them. The only reason I can see for them to have it would have been for a final...

    News story says 50 complaints submitted to FDA about e-cigs in past year

    Skim read through this, 5 of the "adverse events " were positive and asking the FDA why they were trying to kill them. Page # 55, 72, 78, 80 and 81 on the PDF. Many others seemed to be the normal symptoms of stopping smoking, new users with bleeding gums and coughing up multicolored phlegm...

    Carl Phillips: FDA reveals its views on ecigs in new publication

    FUD is all they have as no one has anything but junk science to use against them. Batteries exploding? Any lithium ion battery using product has this. Possible poisoning? Same as any cleaning product, medicine or other things in a normal household. Don't feed them to the children or your pets.:D...
