  1. CASAA is looking for motivated individuals to join CASAA's volunteer Board of Directors! Enthusiasm, time and a willingness to work hard for the cause are all that is required. Experience with non-profit advocacy, law, medicine, accounting/taxes, lobbying, promotion, journalism or contacts with legislators, the medical profession and/or the media is a plus, but not required! Access to the internet and the ability to attend bi-monthly Wednesday meetings at 7pm Central via Skype is also a must. There are no board membership fees. CASAA applicants must not be e-cigarette or tobacco merchants. Five seats are available. If you want to be a part of the movement to protect our right to safer, smokeless alternatives and would like to be considered for a board position, please email your interest, background and any credentials to board@casaa.org.
  2. Just a heads up - I got a few of the suppliers to donate to the cause - raffle prizes will be offered for every 1,000 signatures on the petition! Liquids, kits and a VapeBoxz case so far! Keep an eye out, because we are over 800 now! But we need at LEAST 10,000 signatures to make an impact - so please keep spreading the word!!

    Hi

    Thanks for the welcome everyone! For those who don't know me: My name is Kristin Noll-Marsh. I am on the board of directors for CASAA.org (Consumers Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association). We are a group promoting safer, smokeless alternatives. We are all vapers & vaping vendors. For more info, check out the site! I started vaping last summer - bought a kit at a state fair booth. Went online, found forums, bought a 510 and was a happy camper until I found out the FDA was trying to ban them. Started out by writing pro-ecig articles, because no one else was, lol! http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/624909/kristin_nollmarsh.html Also wrote a couple guides on another forum about the care and use of the Joye510 and an awesome cart mod called PTB Made Easy. Next thing I know, I was elected to the CASAA board, then got involved with Vapers International and the Vapers Coalition! Along with all of that, last month I started an luxury ecig carrying case e-store called VapeBoxz.com. I'm 42, married with 4 kids with ages from 3 1/2 to 19 years old. My husband is 29 and also a vaper! There - I'm no longer a newb!!

    Hi

    OK, I'm not a newb to ecigs, just to VaporTalk. But I need to post 4 more times before I can post anywhere else! So, helloe to VT folks!!
  7. Link: EcigsSaveLives.info Closes 9/01/2010!! 1. Fill in the petition form & leave a comment 2. Click the link in the email confirmation you'll receive (check your spam folder) 3. Check for your signature/comment here: http://actsmoking.epetitions.net/signatures.php?petition_id=1206 4. Link to it on your Facebook, MySpace, Blog, Twitter 5. Forward it to all of your friends, family and coworkers who support you (remind them how ecigs are helping you stay off cigarettes), for them to sign!! 6. THEN print out the PDF version, sign it, stuff it in an envelope and send it by snail mail to each person in the list at the bottom!! Online petitions often are ineffective, because they are often poorly written, don't give facts, don't target the right people, aren't ever delivered by hand and don't validate emails. Also, online petitions are often called "slacktivism" because no one does the follow up work. DON'T BE A SLACKTIVIST! This petition is designed with the advice from advocacy experts!! The petition + signatures and comments will be printed out and mailed to each person on the list. Email addresses must be confirmed by clicking a link in an email that will be sent after you sign. It's filled with FACTS to raise public awareness and education about ecigs. JUST SIGNING THE PETITION YOURSELF ISN'T ENOUGH! YOU HAVE TO FORWARD IT & MAIL IT!! Although we hope it will cause a change of policy, the single most important result of this petition is NOT changing policy - it's the PUBLIC AWARENESS that will be achieved as YOU post it on the internet and give the link to your sphere of influence (friends, family, coworkers). ONE VOICE IS A WHISPER. MANY VOICES ARE A ROAR! Link: EcigsSaveLives.info ALSO! Don't forget about making a COMMENT on the AAPHP petitions to the FDA: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/campaigning-discussions/76546-aaphp-fda-talking-points-discussion-comments-submissions.html
