California Senate Bill 400 Amended (September 2) to Prohibit the Sale of E-Cigs

The few times i met him were at BodyBuilding competitions/meets. I am in NH right now, and he is in CA.

it'd cost me a few grand to go see him, and even still he probably wouldn't remember me enough to say "oh yeah commere and talk to me!" I've met him a few times, and my impression was a genuinely caring, nice guy... but we're not best buddies

That's cool. Just checking every possible avenue... 'Cause that's what it takes

I just sent the gov another email. I emailed and twittered him a couple weeks ago. I wonder how many of these from one person are too many?

Has it ever crossed your mind that by sending that to the Governor that they don't know that "The Detonator" is an e cig and they may think that you are threatening him? That maybe the "bringing you in" part isn't to meet Arnie, but rather to put you in handcuffs?

I hope that I am wrong!

Uh? what ?-- They said I'm might not make it home for dinner so-

I have a bunch of Hotdogs taped to my chest and some blinking LED's hooked to the hotdogs with wire's - what an easy way to carry my lunch!

I not sure what you mean?

It's a joke if you haven't figured it out!

Can't stop them at this point! Only defy them!

I thought it was a joke to begin with, but everyone was taking it so seriously that I thought that even you believed what you were saying -- and you were just incredibly naive or a complete ......<P>LOL! OK, funny!

I just sent the gov another email. I emailed and twittered him a couple weeks ago. I wonder how many of these from one person are too many?

I made up some twitter/fax slogans we can use to twitter the governor/Attorney General Jerry Brown, and the entire state legislature (just use one, that's all you need):

"VETO SB400 - Big tobacco Good?? E-Cigarettes Bad? WHY?????"
"VETO SB400 - American-made BigTobacco Good? American-made E-cigarette liquid, Bad? WHY???"
"VETO SB400 - Big tobacco 4,000 chemicals, Good? E-Cigarettes 10 chemicals, Bad? WHY???"
"VETO SB400 - Nicotine in Cigarettes, Good? Nicotine in E-cigarettes, Bad? WHY???"
"VETO SB400 - Propylene glycol in intimate lubricants Good? Propylene glycol in E-cigarettes Bad? WHY????"
"VETO SB400 - Propylene glycol in CrestWhiteStrips, Good? Propylene glycol in E-cigarettes, Bad? WHY???"
"VETO SB400 - Nic Patches/gum ineffective, Good? E-Cigarettes effective, Bad? WHY??"
"VETO SB400 - Big Tobacco 1/2Million Dead/year, Good? E-Cigarettes ZERO Dead/year, Bad? WHY???"
"VETO SB400 - Nic Patches/gum handed to minors free, Good? E-cigarettes age-restricted to experienced adult smokers only, Bad? WHY??



we're not at the Alamo yet but we need to make our voices heard.
If SB400 is signed into law, we can still get a referendum on the upcoming ballot - we only need 50K signatures to do it.


so, twitter like it's 1999. and let's get to work on a ballot referendum!

Hope this helps!

I couldn't email him...so I called his office and let a nice staff member named Jennifer know how I feel about SB 400.

 

[PaulZ]

i emailed him, hopefully knowing ive met him at some of his meets catches his eye as a "publicity" thing and i get through, past the filter employees

I’d like to say that I’m very grateful to see all your creative, active and constructive responses opposing this bill. I have no doubt that whatever happens in California will impact me personally - even far over the pond.

This bill does need the veto by the Governor until Sunday, 11th. Which means that any concerns have to hit the Governor’s office until this Friday, 9th, to have an effect. For simplicity, there are several letters in this thread and on other places on ECF, especially here and here. I certainly hope that this bill will not become effective law.
