I am contacting you in regard to the purposed ban of E-cigs. I do not want to take up you’re valuable time so I’ll be brief. I would like you to understand that after a lifetime of smoking cigarettes I have been diagnosed with a disturbing list of crippling smoking related diseases, and nothing I’d tried to stop smoking worked, at all: patches, gum, and pills, none of it. I was dying from 42 years of tobacco addiction. As a last resort I purchased an E-cig kit on-line. I bought a V2 kit which is like a cigarette with cartomizers. I quickly learned how to refill them, and soon after, started making my on juice. I loved it! I had finally quit, and I thought that I was ready for the next level and bought a VAMO VW/VV along with rebuildable cartomizers?? as well as atomizers??. Now, I could adjust voltage precisely as well as nicotine strength/flavor. It has been way over year now and I have not touched another cigarette since nor ever want to. I also know personally of many others who have freed themselves from tobacco use as well by using E-cigs. Since then I have researched this issue thoroughly, and have come to the conclusion that they in no way harm myself or anybody nearby. I can smell, taste food; my doctors were so amazed that they just had to know how my lungs suddenly cleared completely up! I ended up giving them a lesson about E-cigs! E-cigs emit a small water-base vapor that is virtually undetectable. Long-story short; it would be greatly distressing to see Big Tobacco/Big Pharma cripple this wonderful invention; because it??s really just about the money now, isn’t it? Why would you ban E-cigs when its tobacco that needs to be banned! I’m a disabled former smoker who now can never work again do to tobacco use. I??m also on oxygen 24 hrs a day. I live in Madera California, USA and if you could see your way to support folks such as myself and others in defeating any effort that would jeopardize E-cigs, it would go a long way in the hearts and minds of E-cig users and future E-cig users who are still suffering from tobacco addiction; in not only your city/town, but also civilization as a whole. History books will document their decisions. It??s not often in our history where something as beneficial as E-cigs comes along, and the numbers prove it. I pray that you’ll consider what I’m trying to say here as E-cigs have entirely saved my life! Thank you for your time…And God Bless You: Douglas Dixon, Tobacco Survivor.
