Partial Quotes:

Mr. Deyton said he's a fan of competition in industries and that he would be open-minded about new products that might reduce illness and death associated with tobacco use. He did not specify smokeless tobacco, but some tobacco companies have argued that the agency should permit them to market the products as being less dangerous than cigarettes.

"There's no monopoly on great ideas, so we at FDA will keep an ear open for great ideas as we move ahead," Mr. Deyton said.

What a bunch of hypocrites!!!
