I couldn't find one, so I started a political action type group on Facebook. I really am not the creative type (I'm a software engineer) so anyone that knows FB and how to jazz things up could do us a favor. Also any contacts or info pages or anything.

If anyone else has started one of these already, I apologize. I didn't see anything.

And since I'm a newbie, I can't post a link to the group. Facebookers search for "Save the E-Cig"

Wyzardd, thanks for your efforts, and I just joined too.

I do have one concern, however, and a request related to that. In your description of the group, you have included a reference to governments' attempts to "criminalize" along with banning and taxing ecigs.

To my knowledge, there have been no attempts to criminalize possession or use of ecigs - even in Australia where there is a complete ban, possession and use is not a crime. The problems faced everywhere are those of civil regulation and/or banning as to marketing and sales.

I would prefer to see that word "criminalize" out of the description altogether, as I think it creates a false impression we'd be better off without.

Thanks Yvilla. I thought I recalled something about Australia treating it as a criminal offense, but since I've no cite I'll edit that out.
Any other criticisms, constructive or otherwise, are welcome. I'm a software engineer by trade, so I'm fairly hard to offend when it comes to this kind of thing :p

Sweet I'm in too. Wish I could help with jazzing it up. I'm also a software engineer, and trying to wrap my brain around the Facebook API for a client's site is driving me crazy enough.
