This is yet another reason I'm glad I joined ECF. Thanks for posting the notice and link @Oliver , I'm in.

Well...I tried, but it doesn't want to accept my age....insists there is an error, that it doesn't match age previous given???

 

[Alexander Mundy]

Done, but quite a few questions didn't have answers that fit my experiance.

There is a second age question on the next page from the first. Enter the same age in that box will make that error go away.

Done. Survey complete.

I regularly check the good Dr's facebook Konstantinos Farsalinos

He answers questions from folks and regularly shoots down BS. As brilliant as he is - he explains things in an easy-to-understand way.

He just shot down someone quoting this article Smoking E-Cigarettes Daily Doubles Risk of Heart Attacks and he explained why this is not true

They seemed to think that a transition period is needed. Going to sleep smoking and waking to be vaper, I was prepared, didn't seem possible. It can work if you are totally disgusted and you don't want to take a pharmaceutical drug that has a reputation for killing. vaping doesn't seem to do that. Actually, I find it relaxing.

Done

 

[IDJoel]

Done. Thanks for the heads-up @Oliver! (and @classwife too!)

 

[jwbnyc]

done.

One thing though... I think there was a question missing at the end there, after the last flavor question there was another whole series of flavor answers, but no question.

I’m assuming they wanted to know what flavors we vape now, but didn’t quite answer correctly, due to the missing query.

Seemed strange anyway.

 

[FranC]

Done

 

[NicotineRush]

Done.
If you need another ip address just use a vpn.

Survey really should have included 'other' tobacco products. Snus, Snuff, Chew, etc.... as they have many flavors as well. Just asking about cigs seems to be rather limiting. (but what do I know?)

 

[LynnNC]

Done. I hated the redundant questions. Plus why does any survey need to know how much money you make?

 

[Katmar]

Done and have to agree with Lynn. Too many repeat questions. Why?

Dear gang,

Every now and then I ask if you'll spare some time to do something to protect vaping. In this case, I urge all US resident vapers to spend around 20 minutes completing this survey by Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos.

(non US residents will not be able to participate, and only one person per household/ip address can participate. I guess if there's another vaper in your house, you might have them complete it on their cellphone or at work)

A quick reminder as to why this is important (text from CASAA):

In March, the FDA published an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) regarding standards for flavored vapor products. An ANPRM is the beginning of the rule making process and serves as an opportunity for all stakeholders to provide feedback to the agency by way of comments and scientific studies.

As part of the effort to address some of the questions posed by the FDA in the ANPRM regarding flavored vapor products, Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos has developed the survey. The data collected will provide valuable information about patterns of e-cigarette use with a focus on the role that flavors play.

Many thanks!

Done! Thank you for posting the survey.

I think the income question rules out kids? And I think the redundant questions indicate thoughtful, true answers rather than someone just checking boxes because they were asked to help out with a survey.

I noticed that too, but I just put in the same age and kept going.

LOL...You beat me to the answer... Redundancy is frequently used in surveys and tests to confirm the veracity of the answers given...
