I have been a smoker for close to 50 years. I have attempted to quit many times – the patch, would smoke with the patch, gum-would smoke w/ the gum – hypnosis – quit smoking claSSES – i was trapped with smoking. The only thing that has helped me to quit has been the e-cigarette. i am still able to have the hand/mouth satisfaction with a small amount of nicotine. i have not had a cigarette in over a year and do not crave one. this would be a real shame to tax, remove, outlaw this fantastic anti-smoking aid. please allow an extension so that we may plead our case. thank you. ,
