I mailed this to myself and bcc'd 10 friends and relatives. Notice I did not ask for promises or confirmation. Most will probably not do it, but if even 1 does, and 10,000 people each ask, we raise public consciousness of CASAA, and signal that vapers have non-vaping allies in our loved ones.
[h=2]Subject: Request for moral support for vapers[/h]
There is an organization that you can join for free, that stands up for vapers and other consumers of reduced-harm smokess tobacco with the press and the government.
CASAA, Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association.
Become a CASAA Member
I'd like to ask you to consider adding your name to the membership roster. If you join, you'll get up to 2-5 emails a month, it is configurable to make it more like one every couple of months.
Adding numbers adds credibility. I feel it is important for media and gov't to realize that loved ones who absolutely WOULD NOT have supported me as a smoker, DO support me as a vaper! (I will either smoke or vape for the rest of my life, let's not let it go back to smoking.)
Details:
There are 2 email lists,
1. one to announce 2x/month meetings, which you can opt out of and still be a member
2. One to announce an alert for a legislative action in your state, which in California means 1-4 a month because we're so big and the alerts include cities and counties.
Your address will not be shared, so it's easy to delete these alerts, or if you are not in California, they will be so rare you might not even notice.
Thank you for considering this question, I appreciate all the help we can get now that the FDA has made it clear they intend to start enforcing a multi-million-$$ set of pharmaceutical-grade application requirements to vendors in order to stay in the market. That gives the market back to Big tobacco.
