I saw it too, and yes, it was short, and not much information, but positive in that Stossel's point was that the FDA should stay out it, or that's what I got out of it.

I emailed the program to show my support. And to say that it would be a good story to get someone there that knows about PV's and could demonstrate and speak up about the device.

One baby step at a time.

Apparently, it'll be a topic on his show tonight. Here is the transcript:

00:53:24 We know with the new year comes new year's resolutions.
00:53:26 But if you didn't get around to one, don't worry.
00:53:30 The government has made a bunch of them for you.
00:53:32 >> Guess who is on top of this story.
00:53:34 That's the topic of tonight's episode of "stossel" starring john stossel.
00:53:39 John, does it bother you that resolutions are made at the highest level of this country?
00:53:43 >> Yes, the beauty of new year's resolutions is that they're about us.
00:53:46 We make them for ourselves.
00:53:48 We can obey them or not but government makes them for all of us and the press often calls them resolutions but I mean, think about it.
00:53:56 People don't resolve to tell other people what to do.
00:53:59 Imagine if they did.
00:54:00 Imagine the scene in your kitchen.
00:54:04 >> Listen, I resolve that you are going to quit eating fatty food.
00:54:08 >> Well, I resolve that you will go to the gym every morning.
00:54:11 >> Then I guess I resolve that you should give all your workers a 20% raise.
00:54:16 >> Then I resolve you will cook me dinner every night.
00:54:20 >> It wouldn't be good for their relationship.
00:54:22 >> In any real world or imagined world.
00:54:25 >> That's government and us and they keep trying -- they keep banning things.
00:54:28 One of the latest ones, they have these new e cigarettes supposed to help people quit smoking, the government says this is a nicotine delivery device.
00:54:37 Even if there's no smoke and it's much safer, some communities, some politicians are moving to ban these things.
00:54:43 >> So you were kind enough to give one of these to me the other day.
00:54:46 Now, the two that you and I are going to try, these have no nicotine in them, by the way, we're trying the flavored cigarette, right?
00:54:55 >> This is true.
00:54:55 But, you know, I'm not a smoker.
00:54:58 I don't like these but let people try stuff.
00:55:00 It's like -- you either quit or you die.
00:55:04 That's the philosophy of the politicians.

That was a great video. I love John Stossel, and I'm a frequent viewer of his weekly show on Fox Business. I assume tonight's episode will focus on, among other topics, the e-cigarette. One flaw about Stossel's shows is that he can rush through topics. I hope that he slows down long enough to actually state the chemicals and note the carcinogens difference between the cigarette and e-cigarette.

I'm kind of surprised that, as far as I know, Judge Andrew Napolitano has never covered the FDA vs. the e-cigarette

I'm a little confused. That video was posted two days ago, so was the show actually on January 4th? Elaine, was this video of what you saw this morning? The transcript doesn't match the video, so I thought they were different.

Oh, wait, the side bar on the video on his site says the full show is tonight at 9pm EST.

This video is absolutely wonderful
The Katherine Heigl & David Letterman on The Late Show was great
However, this is news and what I loved was they were all laughing
and joking and poking fun at E-cig bans and 3 were puffing on the E-cig. GREAT

Fantastic Pro-vaping video and endorsement
this video will be linked on most Pro E-cig websites
within a few days. Just think about all the people who
will now try E-cigarettes!!!

Your transcript matches what I saw this morning. Love the video you found.
