OMG! I didn't get past this sentence on the first page before I felt my blood pressure start ticking up:

"The Court need not sift through this evidence, however, because Congress entrusted the decision whether to supervise tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, to the expert judgment of the FDA."

Are they seriously telling the Judge not to bother with the scientific evidence because they know best??
I like the "expert judgement" of the FDA LOL!!!! Oh boy talk about puffing out the FDA chest, I see the gorilla on top of the mountain giving out a mighty yell! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

@house mouse - Clever new avatar! At first I thought Damn...that's a severely underweight zebra. Then I realized what it really was! :thumbs:
I noticed it yesterday as a hand,, I thought it was pretty clever :)

It's really cool full size. I didn't think anyone would notice it in avatar size though. :)

Ha! I've got 3.5 years into vaping, and ever since the day I found it I've never left RY4. It's my only flavor for over a year now.
My fave recipes are all RY4 based as well. TFA RY4 Double is pretty good on it's own IMO.

Have you ever tried RY2K by Super Charged Heaven? It is my ADV (got 360ml+ that I stocked up on) but I haven't found a clone recipe for it yet so that is on my DIY to do list once I get the toasted marshmallow and toasted almond with my next flavoring order. Good Life Vapor Deadly Sin is another RY4 based recipe I like and have found a good clone (RY4 + Cinnamon Danish Swirl + Butterscotch) of (there are many other clones of this I plan to try).

Good morning :)

I may not be thrilled about our chances in court overall, but the more arrogant the FDA is in their responses the better chance they piss off the judge, which is only a good thing for us ;)

Now that I'm all stocked up I'm transitioning back to where I was before I needed to update my stash. After spending my first few vaping years buying what ever I wanted and having fun trying lots of different stuff I'd spent several years buying very little for myself and living off what I already owned. It took me 2 or 3 months to adjust last time to ignoring sales :eek::lol: and I learned to stay away from threads on ECF talking about stuff I didn't already own.

At least back then it was no problem to get a new vaping toy or replenish something I used IF on a rare occasion I wanted to. The hard part about now is knowing that unless a huge miracle happens its not going to be easy in the future. :(

Hope it's okay ... I just borrowed a little of your signature mattiem. I would like the other one but can't figure out how to type the ohm sign.

:)
hit alt and hold it down while typing 2 3 4 then let up on the alt key and bingo Ω

ROFL ... All of my vape stuff is old. Even the Provaris & mechanicals I just bought are old, the cartos I just bought are old! I stocked up in 2011 when the end of vaping was looming over our heads. All I've done sense is just add more of the same stuff to the pile. AND, trust me on this, I enjoy my vape just as much as the next guy ... just haven't been chasing the latest & greatest for the last six years. (and can pretty much vape for free for the rest of my life)

At my age, I figure a 50 year supply is probably enough.
We are now all collectors of vintage vape gear :) If it all goes the way of the dodo it will be priceless.

This part really caught my attention.

"The e-cigarette market has ballooned in tandem, with domestic sales reaching an estimated $3.5 billion in 2015. AR 23,950. Roughly two-thirds of this market is in cig-alikes, which are primarily distributed by the “big three” tobacco companies and largely sold alongside conventional cigarettes in supermarkets, pharmacies, convenience stores, and “big box” retailers, as well as online."

So two thirds of the market belongs to cigalikes from the "big three" tobacco companies, yet those are the very products that will be left in the marketplace thanks to Deeming in its current form. Truly "Alice in Wonderland" regulations.
If open users are only 30% of the vape community, we don't matter. Stock up!!!

One RY4 I used to like was Oryental, it was different and not sweet but lighter. I still have some of that flavoring.
