Excellent article!! I left a comment with a couple of links for folks to check out. Thanks for posting.

i dugg the story, and used this quote as the tag line "According to the Food and Drug Administration an electronic cigarette has 3.87 nanograms of carcinogens compared to 4300 in a Marlboro cigarette." I think the reporter got it wrong and the numbers were from a different study, but I wanted to perpetuate an alternative distortion of the FDA study.

CJsKee, your comment isn't up yet.

Ah, Michigan, my Michigan.

Check out this link. It was posted (but truncated) in one of the comments. I did a search on the site and found it.

This document claims that FDA won the case that bans the import of e-cigarettes in the U.S. Court of Appeals.

Doesn't the state of Michigan employ any attorneys?

OK, call me a busybody. I filed a complaint with the Michigan Attorney General's office that the document in question contains incorrect legal information and suggested that someone from that office provide the correct legal interpretation to MDCH.

According to the Food and Drug Administration, an electronic cigarette has 3.87 nanograms of carcinogens compared to 4,300 in a Marlboro cigarette.

This made me laugh. Press using the FDA's own study against them is hilarious.
