General Comment:Dear Sir:
I am an individual consumer requesting an extension to the comment period of the FDA's Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug , and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act published at 79 Fed. Reg.23,142.  I am requesting that the comment period be extended an additional 105 days to a total 180 days.

The proposed rule raises issues and questions that are important to me and I would like to, in time, respond and comment on them.  The FD has had years to propose these rules, Myself and other consumers deserve a chance to make a response.

I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. I believe they have saved my life. I have in fact not smoked a traditional cigarette in 6 months thanks to e-cigs.

Thanks for consideration of my request.
