This article has nothing to do with Ellen Cruella, but this IS her goal. Maybe Canadas a little rougher than Us http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/us_smoking

Thats funny, I dont care who you are !

Ok, I went to Cruellas Senate web page, and clicked on the "contact me", and typed away a lengthy, respectful, tirade on how I felt, and when I clicked submit, it wouldnt go through because Im not from Californya (Duhhhhhh, I shoulda remembered from last time ). BUT, what I dont understand is, when you pull from the drop-down menu to pick a topic before you type- SB400 IS NOT THERE . ? Is anyone else experiencing this ? I still think its a waste of time contacting her, its kinda like e mailing Tammy Faye to stop wearing make-up, her mind is pretty much made up, and so is Cruellas. Any ways ........... Chris, you deserve the day to gloat and vape and vape and gloat, but PROMISE me - tomorrow we kick it into full gear again. Like I said in an earlier post. we just took normandy beach, but Berlin is a LONG ways away. Everyone NEEDS to understand this is FAR from over, and we cant get complacent just yet. But for today - I now dub thee "Sir Christopher ", well well done lad !

As for that 8 penny nail - I believe that ship has already sailed

Ok. Just took a gander at Cruella's SJR 8 , and if there is ONE thing I can deduce from it, its that she is DEFINITLY in someones pocket. She clearly has an agenda that shes not going to give up on easily. EVERY "whereas" in the bill is based on outdated half truths, and it seems her MAIN sticking point is that e cigs are aimed at kids. Guys, thats just TOO easy to shoot down. I think if we sent her 100 e mails, shes so ignorant shed read 3 and delete any more that came in. She doesnt WANT to hear our voice, she just wants everyone to hear hers. So, how do you drown out an ignorant, egotistacle ( or as Archie Bunker would say, egotesticle ) jerk, you talk OVER her. I say we KEEP innundating Arnold with e mails. Hes already shown he has more common sense than her, that hes NOT willing to blindly take away peoples rights - "Items defined as “tobacco products” are legal for anyone over the age of 18. If adults want to purchase and consume these products with an understanding of the associated health risks, they should be able to do so unless and until federal law changes the legal status of these tobacco products." Keep shooting over her head, no ones listening to her, but hes already listened to us. Keep him and those around him informed. They are our allies now.

I'm just GIDDY !!! I just woke up here in Fla, first thing I do is check my email, and I get one from Chris who I can tell by the e mail is drunk with vindication. Let this be our lesson, we CAN make a difference. Who knows if it wasnt one of our letters that swayed him. And, just as we feared the domino effect if this had passed, it goes both ways. Now other states may be leary of passing the same kind of bill. Anyways Congrats Chris and Sean, and everyone who helped. Now, we just landed at Omaha Beach, its a LONG way to Berlin. Lets Roll ......

Im down here in Fla, how are you keeping track? Will we know tonight DUHHH !! I just saw the link.... belay my last

Well, in my opinion, thats taxation without representation, which was the instigation of our forefathers. Believe me, I am no militant or radical extremist. I love my country, I served proudly in the Navy,but I really believe if things continue the way they are, there WILL be an uprising of SOME sort. Maybe not in my lifetime, or maybe yes. Big Pharma and big money can only hoodwink for so long, like Lincoln said, you can fool some of the people some of the time.... I dont know, I just think there are a WHOLE lot more people pissed off in this country right now than there are contented.

Thats what happened during prohibition. Honest, hard working people were forced to break the law when thier livelyhood was abruptly classisfied illegal. For all of the real criminals ( Capone, Karpis etc.) who were KILLING people to make a buck, there were twice or three times as many who sold brew because thats the ONLY profession thier family had ever known. This is no different. The Govt., or a select few holier than thou, closed minded, idiots have the POWER to say " I know whats best for you so this is how it will be ". This WHOLE ridiculous situation boils down to ONE thing - FOLLOW THE MONEY. Look at the people behind this bill- who is one of thier BIGGEST contributors ? Pfizer . Who is Pfizer ? They make Chantix. What is Chantix - its the stop smoking drug that has killed HUNDREDS of people from side effects, one of which is suicdal thoughts. If e cigs are as succesful as they FEAR it will be, it will RUIN Chantix. If it ruins Chantix, Pfizer stops donating. If youre an elected official relying on thier donations to get re-elected, well then my fellow constituents, I KNOW WHATS BEST FOR YOU. Follow the money with health care ( Insurance Companies ). Follow the money with EVERYTHING, its not who NEEDS the most, its who GIVES the most. The "Let them eat cake " mentality that brought one country to its knees. WOW, sorry, I went on a rant there. I'll shut up now !

"Well we have done what we can. Today (hopefully) we will find out whether or not SB400 goes into law." So Chris, if it IS vetoed, how much time do you think it will buy us

DAMN , she fell outta the ugly tree and hit EVERY branch on the way down !

As big of a deal this is to all of us, our cause is the size of a nats pimple compared to all of the other issues these clowns are f-ing up. So, look at it this way - come next election, I really think a VAST MAJORITY of these people will be down at the unemployment lines with thier ex-constituents. Now THAT is something we CAN do. I know a LOT of people think thier vote doesnt matter, but just ask Al Gore, he lost by 5000 votes. It may mean we lose the battle, and have to bite the bullet for a time, but we HAVENT lost the war. When we elect more open minded people to represent us, things can be repealed.

You guys are great ! You go to awesome lengths to explain things to us rookies. Its these kind of things that make vaping such a cool experience. Thanks for all the info !

I have a manual. I dont know about the cut off, theres no led. I know i get a good strong hit off of it. If I get 3 months out of it I'll be happy. It was only 15 bucks. But I'll be anxiously awaiting what youre coming up with

Why are they crap, should I stop using it, or will it harm my computer or e cig ? And I know most products are from china, but I bought this at rockymountain, do they make thier own or buy from china as well

So, with a newer computer (mine is an HP laptop I bought 10 months ago ) is the batt necessary ?

Thanks Kitsune, that makes sense. I didnt know you could use them when your powered down ! Thanks for the info.

Hey guys, I know Im not technically a noobie anymore, but I AM new to my usb pass thru for my 510. It came yesterday, from Rockymountainvapor.com. First time buying from them, I usually go with Arno but he doesnt carry them (pass thrus ). Service was great, got here in 4 days, price was good, cheaper by a buck or two from most. O.K. thats outta the way, heres my questions. It comes with a battery, but I dont understand the mechanics, i.e., why does it NEED a batt, and, will that batt die and do I need to replace it from time to time ? It came with no instructions to tell me about this. By the way, it works AWESOME, Im almost afraid Im gonna atomize my atomizer Im vapin so much. I just dont get the battery thing ( really no biggie ) but will I kill it by using it so much, and where do u get replacements if you do ? And are there any special care or tips and tricks with the pass thru. Thanks guys

Chris, I failed MISERABLY in science and chemistry and, well, lets just say i failed miserably. If you gave me an atom bomb, I'll definitely go bring pain and hardship on whoever you need me to, If you ask me how it works ..... So, what was the answer, how much nic are we getting ? ( I REALLY mean no disrespect here )

Youre right Kmel, and thats whats wrong with the system. Out of 700 bills, only about 14 are REALLY benefitting the people. The rest just benefit lobbyists and special interest groups. " We the People " has turned into " We with the most Money ". We are being represented by people OF money who worry only about securing it, and IF a little can trickle down to the masses, then o.k. , but ONLY if they benefit. We are being run by mostly lawyers, and why that has become a qualification for public office has always puzzled me. The ones that are LEAST in touch with the peoples needs are making the decisions that effect peoples needs. The Governator will do whats right for HIS causes , and if some of US benefit, then he'll take the credit. Its a " Let them eat cake " mentality that drove one country to its knees, and I fear it will do the same to ours.

Ive never had the nads to own a bike. But my favorite would be anything with Jennifer Aniston on it.

The Volstead Act of 1919, was the brainchild of a group of self-serving narrow minded holier than thou individuals. From Wilkipedia - Though the Volstead Act prohibited the sale of alcohol, it did little to enforce the law. The illegal production and distribution of liquor, or bootlegging, became rampant, and the national government did not have the means or desire to enforce every border, lake, river, and speakeasy in America. In fact, by 1925 in New York City alone there were anywhere from 30,000 to 100,000 speakeasy clubs.[2] Prohibition became increasingly unpopular during the Great Depression, especially in large cities. Once again, a group of self serving narrow minded holier than thou individuals are in power. If we ignore our past, we will repeat it. And as I recall my history, the 1920s and 30s were some of the most lawless bloody corruption filled years in our countrys history. I think a LOT of people at the time thought it would never really happen. And of course, a lot of people didnt even know about it, as news wasnt instantaneous back then. It took DAYS if not weeks for some news to travel across the country, and by the time anything could be done to make the peoples voices heard, it was too late. THAT IS NOT THE CASE HERE ! WE HAVE THE TIME to do something. We have the means to do something. We just need to lose the "My voice wont matter" mentality ! Too many e mails are NOT being sent because of it. EVERY e mail counts ! This is NO different than prohibition, in fact, it IS prohibition by definition. Imagine, what would Al Capone had done for a living if the people spoke up and Prohibition never happened ? And, who will the NEW Al capone be if this thing passes ? ( I nominate Chris ). I hope EVERYONE reads this and I hope it inspires EVERYONE to respond. "Governments first duty is to protect the people, not run thier lives " - Ronald Reagan

Are they located in China? They may be having shipping issues.

I have the manual . I was kinda hesitant about having to push a button every time I wanted a drag, but honestly, turns out its no big deal. I got the blu cause I REALLY wanted it to LOOK like a cig, but after that experience, it didnt matter anymore. Its WORTH it to get the excellent throat hit and vapor almost EVERY time. Im not familiar with the TECC 510, or where youre getting it from, but take my advice, go to awesomevapor.com . Hes your one stop vape shop and his service is impeccable. You can e mail him with ANY questions ( Believe me, I was embarrassed with some of mine) and he is HAPPY and eager to answer them THE SAME DAy usually. I have found your experience with vaping is enhanced when you knock away as many obstacles as you can. Constant frustration with your device is the first obstacle, and a reliable, reputable, FAST, supplier is the second.
