It’s been about three weeks since the FDA released their draconian vaping regulations. Are vaping vendors involved in this fight? While I certainly don’t want to paint the dozens of vendors with the same brush, I’m very disappointed. Lets begin by visiting this page which displays the number of vendors who have actually submitted letters requesting a longer… Read More »

The following video titled: “53 Year Smoker, Now Vaping – Jeannie Cox” is a must watch. It’s adorable, on topic, emotional, and relevant to our cause. In this video Jeannie mentions that her husband’s (a non vaper) sinuses are better. This fact spawned another idea. Encourage your non vaping friends, significant others, and associates who have seen the… Read More »

FDA’s Mitch Zeller and CDC’s Tim McAfee appeared before this Senate Committee. Zeller wants to build a larger buracrecy. Zeller wants to enact these dryconian laws FIRST, and then conduct biased scientific studies to support his wild and flawed claims. Most of the Politician were either clearly biased against vaping, driven by an agenda funded by BT/Pharma, or… Read More »

They even include a sample letter and these links are located on their home page.  Many Vapers are not familiar with this organization whose mission is representing small and mid-sized businesses in the vapor industry, including vape… Read More »

Call me perplexed, mad, upset, or disappointed. The Facebook post by Pink Spot Vapers located in their timeline is quoted below and appears in a discussion concerning the FDA Vaping regulations: “We are not worried about the regulations. We have been self regulating since we started and will continue to produce a great product in a clean environment. We are… Read More »

CASAA has provided detailed instructions and guidance. A fair use extraction: ” The First Call to Action is for CONSUMERS to request a 105-day extension of the comment period, requesting a total of 180 days to make comments.  We understand that SFATA, AEMSA, and other industry groups will be providing similar guidance for vendors and manufacturers. “ First… Read More »

The first step for your reading pleasure: “Which brings us to the first Call to Action, which will be issued in the next day or two. FDA, which took more than three years to issue these enormous documents, has given us a… Read More »

I have received a couple of emails and noticed that some Vapers want to know when they can expect formal guidance, final analysis, and a call to action from CASAA and SFATA. A few of them are screaming but to a certain extent, that is to be expected. The primary reasons for the delay is the complexity of the issue.… Read More »

I’m appalled at the lack of creative thinking with respect to convincing folks that the current FDA regulations are a de facto ban on vaping and they need to be significantly modified. Specifically, I’m referring to the slanted and false coverage we see on the Television. Everyone loves to complain but so few of us are thinking creatively.… Read More »
