    Contra Regulation

    Ok, have to agree you got a pretty good point. Consequences to action was my main thought, although no clear idea of what those should be. If there were true consequences to people's actions the world would be a different place. I have libertarian leanings, but like many havent fully embraced...

    Inside the FDA.......

    Best advice I've seen so far is to hold out till Obama gets the boot and lobby for a change in leadership at the FDA. Out with the thugs and in with some common sense. Given the response to the tea party, I can only imagine what the anti's in the media would call a bunch of protesting vapers...

    VOTE NOW! Wall Street Journal Poll: Should e-cigarettes be regulated as drug-delivery devices by the FDA?

    Gotta love that unbiased reporting. At least the FDA doesnt have the ammo yet for a full ban and cant currently convince the court they are right. Scariest part of the AOL article is the part where 69% want to ban vaping indoors/at work like cigarettes are now. Gotta love the closed minded...

    Comments and votes needed calling out the ECF army

    I love your idea and excellent warning. Shame that the average citizen has little chance to get attention in these matters, takes a professional dedicated group to pound and pound the carefully scripted message. Local coordinated responses to the next FDA action, might help, but fear we are...

    New York outdoors ban

    Think Vaping might become popular in New York if ban happens. Think Burbank or some other CA town did basically the same thing banning smoking within 25 ft of door/window. Still waiting for one of these tickets to be written against someone for vaping. I'd love to challenge that ticket in...

    Factual issue with AHA NRT webpage

    Interesting distinction. Still no response to my email or a correction on the web page. Just chapped my hide for some reason considering how maligned ecigs have been for the same levels, but NRT's are perfectly safe with no side effects whatsoever. But with ongoing efforts to ban smoking...

    Genuine Joytech Cartomizer (No I'm not kidding. It's new)

    Thanks to all the testers for the quality field testing, should help many vapers including me as I seem to have a love hate relationship with standard cartomizer. Think I could live with the one nasty tasting vape at the end if it solves the burning issues. And a mod/serviceable cartomizer...

    Joyetech 510 Cartomizer Followup..

    Interesting to watch. Unfortunately looks like another toy I'll have to buy at some point as my supply of regular cartos runs down. Love the idea of a serviceable cartomizer, now just have to wait and see if this is the homerun we've all been looking for. Is it just called the joye 510...

    E-cigs on Good Day Atlanta this morning-- positive press!

    Hopefully this will become the trend. FDA shoots itself in foot and news media captures it live on TV. Lingering issue of course is the FDA's historical blind eye/ear to criticism not backed with congressional muscle. Of course always cringe when I hear the oh no the kids are gonna love these...

    Glycerin (USP) question

    100% anything is tough to find and 99.6% is close enough for our purposes I believe. Remember the USP is the important thing, indicating some quality control and assurance product is pure for all practical purposes. Mix up my own with the stuff from Walgreens and works just fine. No issues so...

    Whats is the best MOD out?

    The best MOD out there is the one that best suits you. That said, you might want to try a 5V PT before spending a bunch of money on a 5V MOD if you dont currently use 5V. I say that because the 2.5ohm 510 cartomizers while perfect on my 3.7V MOD, get a little hot and go through the juice on...

    Getting started and would like some advice.

    Havent tried pipettes yet, but can see the numbers wearing off the syringes. Worth noting that depending on amount, the smaller syringes are just too small. Kinda like using the dropper to measure out 3 ml, PITA. 60 drops while trying not to shake is asking a bit much. Would love to see...

    Stossel On The FDA

    Everyone on ECF has their fingers crossed as well. Just wish there was some evidence from the last 20 yrs that the FDA ever ate crow and backed off. They usually just find a way to do what they want anyway as evidenced by the letters sent to the 5 companies. An invitation to cooperate in my...

    Comments and votes needed calling out the ECF army

    Unknown at this time. Pushing effort of facebook as well, with less response but more discussion. Our biggest problem is that we are a very small fish in a very big pond, hell the FDA is going after cough syrup now on behalf of saving even more children so our best bet maybe to get a mention...

    Factual issue with AHA NRT webpage

    Found something interesting regarding NRT's on American Heart Association's site. That is either a flat out lie or they just say what they feel like without doing any research. Really loved the warning about hazards people may not know about with NRT's. Funny they left out the chance of...

    Inside the FDA.......

    looks like the posted jobs have passed the due date. also considering the salary, you might just be giving aid and comfort to the enemy by sending vapers in :glare: they might be corrupted and decide it's easier to just go along to get along. Cant see any promotion opportunities for boat...

    Californians - SB 882 amended! :~)

    We should all chip in and buy you some migraine med. Thought my eyes were going to start to bleed trying to follow the dancing ball. Keep up the good work and hopefully we'll be able to keep up. Gotta love it when the lawmakers try to put down in black and white how they are going to save us...

    AAPHP to the FDA - Talking points discussion for comments submissions

    80b4e934 is my reference number. Kept my comment short and sweet, not sure how some of the larger comments were made unless I didnt use up much of the allowable character total. Once I saw the limit, I made sure to stick to my main concerns and insist they reconsider exactly what they are...

    Ok is it just me or do E-Liquid manufacturers need to do their part?

    Cheaper is the key in my book for gaining interest in changing behavior in regular smokers. Like someone mentioned earlier there is a natural progression once you do the math. Roll your own, cheaper avoid additives if you like. E-cigs, initial investment like getting a cigarette roller to...

    Contra Regulation

    Probably would help if you posted the links although might not be able to until your post count rises. Interesting and well edited piece. Although sound a little low and sometimes hard to hear, but makes you pay attention and is not overbearing in tone or style. Again as soon as you can, I'd...
