Notes:
I create these newsletters as a personal project. They are not affiliated with any current or past employers or groups with which I volunteer. I receive no financial compensation for my efforts to create these newsletters. Thank you to those who have offered to fund this project and compensate me for my time. This is my gift to people who are interested in nicotine. Community service is important to me. Volunteering is something I have done since I was a child.
