Hello all! New member and new vaper, off cigarettes for a month now. Not being a part of the vaping community for long I'm a bit overwhelmed and worried about this fda business. I've emailed my reps from the casaa link to support hr2058, what else can we do and how worried should we be right now?
New member hello!/Deeming, what now?

howdy - and welcome!
at this point, you are on the right track - join CASAA and get the word out - share on your social media, let friends and family know - the time for advocacy is now!

Haha, I'm seriously considering a stockpile right now. I haven't quite ventured into rebuilding yet but I did recently get an RTA but I've just been using the replaceable coils at this point.
Welcome to ECF!
Being aware of the deeming is a huge step up from a lot of new vapers. So kudos for that. Have you joined CASAA? If not, please sign up, doesn't cost a thing, and they will keep you posted on things you can do. Also, get involved in the threads around the forum regarding the FDA stuff. It may make your blood boil but better to know what you need to have to be ahead of the game.

I did join casaa, and emailed my local reps, also signed the petition on change.org. Don't know if the petition thing really helps any but I figure it can't hurt. I've pretty much just been trying to learn as much as I can at this point.
We are still trying to figure out what all this means, also.
Thank You for getting on board with it!
The larger the membership, the stronger the voice
Good points, especially the media thing. I feel like waaaay too many people are susceptible to "group think" for lack of a better term. As a new vaper it's amazing to see how much vape hate there is, even from smokers. " oh you're gonna get popcorn lung " .....please. I wish people would do more independent research before forming such strong opinions or broad stereotypes.
I like you! I really like you!
Hahaha thank you! Seriously though, very frustrating! I've almost given up on trying to convince people it's better than smoking. At least I've turned one friend on to it so far, he's thrown away the cigs, and he's turned someone else on to it too. Hopefully I can help more people quit like I did, but the negativity is just disheartening.
It is disheartening. I rely on coming here and recharging when I hit too much of the negativity. Nothing helps fire you back up than the support in this forum.
When it gets too much, just think of the friends that you have helped. Those friends help others in their other circles. The net of good information widens. And so it goes.....
See! Don't ya feel better already???!?!?!
The way i turn people into vaping when they say "thats just as bad as smoking"
I say not true. When you smoke you take in butane, nicotine, tar, nicotine, carbon monoxide, potassium nitrate that keeps the cigarette lit, smoke from Tobbaco and paper, fine particulate ash and about 6000 other nasties.
My eCig.
There is NO burning. Just a heated coil that vaporizes the liquid.
There are four ingredients in my ejuice.
Nicotine
Flavor
Propylene Glycol
Vegetable glycerin.
Propylene Glycol is in ice-cream you eat, and is tge Carrier for the medicine in asthma inhalers.
Vegetable glycerin is used as a sweetener, hand lotion, as a preservative for some perishible foods
Lastly USS Google and see what tge british department of health saya. About eCigs 95% safer tgan smoking.
See what another real doctor says about vaping. Look for Dr. Farsalino.
Some people say but Propylene Glycol is in antifreeze.
The poisonous Glycol in antifreeze is ethelene Glycol. That is the poison that killed thoussnds of dogs and other small animals.
A few years ago the companies like Peak, prestone started making animal safe antifreeze with Propylene Glycol. Besides if dictors use PG as a Carrier for asthma inhalers it csnt be that bad for you.
Great points, now all I need to do is memorize them, and get people to actually listen.
Welcome.
In addition to all of the above, please make sure you vote in any
and all elections. My theory is to vote against all incumbants for
at least the next 12 years.

I usually tell people that try saying smoking is worse,this..
What usually kills people if their house catches on fire?
Most times they will say, The Smoke..

Ok ,now how many people have you heard dying in a steam room from the vapor?
None?
