General Comment:Mr. Zeller
I am an individual consumer and am writing to request an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule deeming tobacco products to be subject to the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic act. I am asking that the standard 75 day comment period be extended to 180 days, the reason I ask is that after reading and spending some hours going over the proposed rule I have many questions. So many that they require time to research and develop into a clear coherent series of questions.I know it took three years to develop this proposal and with its large number of issues that are important to me, I need the time to research and educate myself further.

 I am a consumer of e-cigarettes and feel very strongly about them and their benefit and as a alternative to traditional cigarettes and other combustible tobacco products. I thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you use the power given to the FDA under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend the time frame of the comment period to 180 days so that I may speak with a truly informed voice.

Kind Regards
