Sent my email. Hope we get a lot more support from the members on this forum. Hopefully this thread doesn't get lost in the forums.
I do not know where that e-mail address came from--but these are the players and the e-mail addresses to the players that matter---
Email should be addressed to the following members of the FDA:
Janet Woodcock Janet.Woodcock@fda.hhs.gov and/or
Mary Hitch Mary.Hitch@fda.hhs.gov
That is the real deal---Sun

(Sorry, quoting it because this was the OP; different e-mail-address (and route) then what Sun mentions later on in the thread - of course bóth would be best perhaps...)Hi all, my partner has spoken with Jan Cummings of the FDA. Ms. Cummings has become very sympathetic to our cause. Even though she will not be involved in the decision making she requested that emails be sent to the following email address and she will then forward them to the FDA dicision makers. She would like for the subject line to say "Electronic Cigarette" then a well thought out email stating our side of why e-cigs should not be banned. She needs as many of these emails as soon as possible. Thank you for taking the time to consider sending the email, Kat
Please send emails to reglist@cdrh.fda.gov and remember the subject line needs to say only "electronic cigarettes"
Well, I do know where it came from. When my partner and I called our state senators (Missouri) we were given a number to call to also speak with someone in the FDA about e-cigs, my partner left a message and got a return call from Jan Cummings of the FDA, a day or so later. During that conversation this email address was given. Ms Cummings stated she would like to have as many emails regarding this as soon as possible, and that she would forward them on. I didn't mean to step on any toes, but it certainly should not hurt to get our voices heard as much as possible.I am bumping this because these are the 2 people that the ECA and Lacey requested me to email to and these are the real e-mail addresses--I do not know what that OP is talking about or where that e-mail adress came from--but if you are going to send an email--sent it to people in the FDA that have authority---------Sun

I agree, as I have run into this also. I also feel that the louder and farther our voice is spread the more beneficial it will be. I wrote to the other two email addys too. Then when this email addy became available I wanted to share it. I don't see the problem either, for one thing, no human that works fulltime + , has a family, and whatever else we busy our time with, can possibly read each and every entry in every thread and if another email and another email addy gets more emails sent then it is worth it.My thoughts on this, Sun: you allready have your thread for the other two addresses (and I certainly agree with sending emails to those!). This post is about someone that declared to be willing to 'pass them on'; and my knowledge about how things work within organisations is, that direct emails often as not get mass-deleted by the recipient who doesn't want to recieve a certain kind of email... but if a co-worker passes on those same emails to him (or perhaps to the whole group that will be deciding?) - then they don't dare to 'just mass-delete it' and actually feel obliged to READ the thing...
That is the reason I say: do it all, ALSO this one! And I don't understand your trouble with that, to be honest?
