Is anyone else sick and tired of...

[RIAFlight25]

People seeing you with your PV, and telling you all about the things on the news they heard about cancer causing chemicals in them? Usually as they light up an analogue????

Ive had to explain this bogus FDA so called "Study" to so many people.

Im not one to scream BAN BAN BAN, but the past few days, it seems like the FDA's scare tactics are working. Even if its just making more people aware of pv's but in a negative way.

I will continue to disclose the REAL facts that we know about that study until Im blue in the face... better yet, I'll get a tattoo on my forhead if I have to explaining it!

Safe Travels!

 

[Boom!]

yup. One of the FDA tacics = misinform and allow the media to run wild creating public hysteria. One of the points that's been made several times now is how negligent the FDA is being by not issuing any type of correction and just allowing the media to spin this as total doom & gloom. I'd love to see it, but I don't think it'll happen.

check out this thread So what if the FDA wins...

The FDA and all the other special interest groups with reasons to see the e-cig go away are counting on you eventually just getting tired of having to explain yourself, give up, and go back to smoking.

In the meantime, you'll constantly be having to explain your habit to your friends/family that are trying to give an intervention. Your spouse may even banish you back to the back porch like she did when you smoked. Even smokers will treat you like an outcast.

You could just comment something along the line that propaganda works or it wouldn't be used.

I never feel the need to explain myself.

Right now, it's a battle of wills. MINE vs the FDA. Lets see who wins.

I had that happen today, actually, from a coworker. She said "I saw a news report on those. They have antifreeze in them." All of this was said while she was smoking a cigarette. I said "what do you think is in that thing you're smoking?" She had no response.

I contacted a customer today that I usually hear from about every week (a local guy). I asked him where'd he'd been hiding and he said he heard the report and it scared the .... out of him. I printed some stuff up for him to read and he's cool with it now.

So far all the customers I have emailed with about the FDA release think it's trash. The amazing thing to me is the number of customers I have that are in their 50's and 60's! I've even got one that is 72! Smoking e-cigs!!! How cool is that!

we will win, as bruce boxleitner said on Babylon5, "every time I say....no." if i can say no, just one more time than they can say yes. a "no i wont" one more time than they say "yes, you will"....i win.
