I actually have one of these bulk bags. I was a Diet Coke junkie, for many years, and decided I wanted to stop drinking all the chemicals, especially the aspartame, but didn't want to give up the caffeine. So, I now just add it to my filtered tap water :) As a bonus, the cost savings of this...

Wonder if ordering by phone using Skype counts as face to face?

Here's the problem with the clause that directs where the money goes. Back in the late 70's, early 80's, I don't remember exactly, Illinois created a lottery. There was a lot of push back because gambling was illegal, so why would the state start a gambling operation. But it got pushed...

Back when they raised the age to 21, it was even more frustrating for me. I turned 18, was able to buy for several months, then come Jan I was prohibited again for 3 more years. I wasn't a big drinker anyway, but I had enjoyed being able to buy wine and beer with my meals for a few months.

Nope, you wouldn't have an argument. That's what the weaselly phrase "intended or reasonably expected" phrase is for. FDA can say you should have reasonably expected what it would be used for. Now prove that you couldn't have reasonably expected it. Fun stuff, right?

My reps (both house and senate) are all for this abomination. But I'm really hoping it becomes a topic during the meeting CASAA (?) is having with Cole in June :)

They are afraid of Operation Choke Point.

Looks like the judge assigned is Amy Berman Jackson NICOPURE LABS, LLC v. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION et al

A lot of it is in the statute, so it would take an act of Congress to change the requirements and the basis of finding for making an approval. https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/PLAW-111publ31/pdf/PLAW-111publ31.pdf Search for "sec. 910" and it takes you right to the part where you can see that...

His tweet on the day the regs were released: .@US_FDA made the right decision– new steps will keep young Americans safe from the dangers of tobacco products http://1.usa.gov/1rXMGyK

That would be my understanding also. So, you will have to find other sources for all those things other than your local vape shop or online vape seller. Because I don't think they will be allowed to sell them without approval.

They absolutely do intend to regulate the batteries. Even if they have other uses. My best guess would be that any shop or online seller will simply remove things like the batteries, wires, silica, etc. from their offerings. Or maybe they could set up a separate company to sell only those...

I predict that the final reg will be nearly exactly the same as the proposed one, and it will use the option exempting premium cigars. Keep in mind that in the proposed regulations, the actual proposal isn't until section VIII, on page 109, and uses up less than 10 pages of the document's total...

If it becomes law, could an 18yo sue the state on the basis that other 18yo have been exempted (military) for arbitrary reasons? Wouldn't this be the same as passing a law stating that only blonde blue-eyed 18yo are exempt from it?

Those are not documents to be released Monday, they are proposals that have their comment periods ending Monday.

I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. I hope you do find a buyer for your business, as your product is what has kept me from returning to smoking.

Or drink. I remember when Illinois upped the drinking age to 21 in Jan 1979. I turned 18 in Jul '78, was able to drink for legally for 5 months, then the law went into effect and I had to wait another 3 years. To drink legally, I mean. I still did it anyway, like I had been already since I...

From the CA govt's own Office of Environment Health Hazard Assessment fact sheet on Prop 65. Many funny statements in here. Worth re-reading multiple times. Is my family’s health at risk from exposure to these chemicals? Warnings must be provided for chemicals listed under Proposition 65 if...

If there are no changes to the proposed rule, does it still have to go back to OMB?
