I sent Bill Godshall an email thanking him for his testimony before the FDA, and I understand that he was at a Vapefest in 2010. He is an ex-smoker and vaped for a couple of hours at the event using zero nicotine in an e-cigarette. Although he works for an organization called Smokfree Pennsylvania, he is on our side in promoting personal vaporizers as an alternative to smoking.
I believe his email address is as follows. I got it off of and old internet posting:

smokefree@compuserve.com

Here is a link to his commentary after being at Vapefest in Fredericksbury VA:

Bill Godshall from Smoke free Pennsylvania, at Vapefest 2010!

Jsut read the commentary. That is good information. Wish I was there. Maybe next year. (depending on the location)

Just a thought, I do not think they could ban the e-cigarette device, do you? I think their regulation would have to be the "e-juice" if anything. I do not know under what premise they could ban a battery or cartomizers, or T3s etc.

So, if this premise is valid, then us DYI people should be OK, unless they ban the sale of any and all nicotine. Then we would have to vape at zero nic, which is my eventual goal anyway. FAT CHANCE :laugh:

Well there are ways to pull the nicotine out of dip and chewing tobacco. I'm not sure what other chemicals come with it, may be worth a lab test if anyone has the ability if they ever do ban the sell of nicotine by it self. I'm sure it'd still be safer then smoking dipping or chewing.

Nicotine is also in tomatoes, potatoes, & eggplant. we could just extract that & use it instead of tobacco nic. Would take a little more work but it could be done. There are several other weeds that contain even more nicotine.

I was going to respond to that sentence... but I'll behave and leave that alone :laugh:

I don't know how you all feel but that presentation seems to have been a waste of time. The FDA panel was/is clueless to e-cigs. Did they ever ask an intelligent question? If they did I missed it


Short answer, no, however they did like to word their questions to make them sound intelligent!

Some of the answers were absolutely ridiculous like : "Pharmacokinetic bracketing provides an opportunity for pragmatic evaluation of Bio-equivalence" I bet the panel did not even have a clue as to what the Dr. was saying.

PS: Neither did the Wabbit :lol:

Tons of it in broccoli. Strange how we have never heard of a broccoli addiction.
