Comment Info: =================

General Comment:I was finally able to successfully quit smoking four years ago after 43 years thanks to e-cigarettes. For me, smoking was extremely enjoyable which made trying to quit very difficult. I tried patches and nicotine gum. Both satisfied the nicotine craving but I sorely missed the pleasure of smoking. I feel so much better now and can still enjoy the experience by using an e-cigarette. I can understand wanting to do more research on any possible harmful effects e-cigarettes may cause but, please, for the sake of those of us who were finally able to stop smoking, do the research while allowing us to continue vaping. Please extend the commenting period to 180 days. At least give us that chance. After all, you are a government entity and is this not a government for the people? Thank you.
