Please help us Aussie Vapers!

[Orph]

Thanks Vocalek, and sorry to hear you had problems with the site...
Aussie post codes are 4 digits as you found out. Being as the ban is currently enforceable in Qld, perhaps a Qld post code like 4000 (Qld Capital, Brisbane) might be a good one to use for anyone else who would like to help

 

[Vocalek]

I suspect our population is a tad larger than down-under. Here, the basic "ZIP" code is give digits, but they have taken to giving every building a unique code by adding 4 digits to the end of the ZIP code (hypenated). Guess they must trot out a new ZIP code if the number of buildings gets above 9,999.

Voted and commented because I do care. Keep fighting the the good fight. Bottom line fokes. Bans of any kind only need one foothold. Then it's party time. EXAMPLE: Look at the vaping ban in New Jersey. Now other States here in the USA are trying to do the same. CASAA. Org and the NVC can not be every ware. They are volunteers with limited funding and this just flys in the face of common sense. There are only Two grantees in life. 1: Someday we will all Die. 2: But in the meantime we will pay boatloads of our hard earned dollars in Taxes for nonsense like this. We are now a global community. Our respective Governments mandated this. Maybe as a global community it is time to address our collective destine for this and all that is just not right in this world.

And there I was thinking of moving back to my wife's hometown near Perth, WA (absolutely gorgeous country, AUS, btw). I'm afraid if they full bore ban it I'll have to rethink me options lol.

Seriously, though, I hope this fight can do some positive change. I can honestly think of no bad coming from something that helps even the most hardcore smoker kick the habit. You're fighting the good fight, so swing on!

And cheers, mate!

Until the ban is lifted in Queenland, I have vowed never to visit there again.

Dunno Mick, that'd be somewhat uncomfortable on a 4.5hr flight.....and what if the beagles go for it at the other end.....

 

[Ravenscroft]

The Beagles are really cute. When I came back from OS they didn't give a rats about all the juice and e-cigs in my luggage and on my person.

I've voted and posted. Thank you for sharing the link. The ditch is pretty narrow and I wouldn't want NZ getting the same silly ideas in their heads.

What you guys need is a voice. Until you get a consumer association and a trade association, they can grind you into the dirt.

You might want to contact Dr. Coral Gartner, NHMRC Postdoctoral Research Fellow, UQ Centre for Clinical Research at The University of Queensland. Her Email is c.gartner@uq.edu.au. She appears to be a strong supporter of harm reduction and may be able to put you in contact with others who are of the same opinion.

She was on maternity leave a number of weeks back and still may be but she contacted me fairly soon after I emailed her so she is checking mail. Good luck

Yesterday, M. Siegel (The Rest of the Story) shortly blogged on the reverse logic prevalent today in tobacco control: “Australia Seizes Electronic Cigarettes”.

Just to bump for Aussie vapers’ cause (see OP).

What the hell is that site? What are we voting for according to the site? I agree with every comment whole heartedly, but what is the vote button representing? There is just a vote button and no indication what so ever what you are voting for?! I'm all for our cause but if this is just poorly executed than get your %#& together, if I am mistaken than Ill vote the maximum times and campaign everyone else I know who vapes to do the same.
