Subject: FW: What you must say to the White House comments line today to defend 
access to dietary supplements!
Date: Sat, 30 Oct 2004 06:56:29 -0500

I very recently received this from the Life Extension Foundation.  With the
backdrop of Ray Kurtzweil's (>250 supplements per day reportedly) cursory
interview on G4TechTV, and the keen interest here in longevity if not
immortality, I am resubmitting this here.  (This may be considered to be not
on topic to some.)  Interestingly, I received the email a few hours after
Friday had passed:

Subject: What you must say to the White House comments line today to defend
access to dietary supplements!
Please call the Whitehouse Comments line 202-456-1111 to urge Bush to reign
in Dr.Schneeman of FDA over the Codex Vitamin issue.

Tell the Whitehouse comments line:

Dr.Schneeman of the FDA will be representing the USA at the CCNFSDU meeting
(codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special dietary uses) in Bonn
Germany on Monday November 1, and that she must vociferously oppose
finalization of the current Codex vitamin standard because it is not
consistent with DSHEA.

Tell the whitehouse comments line operator that a legal demand letter has
been served on Schneeman, who will be facing a Title 42 lawsuit if she fails
to uphold US law at this meeting.

Tell the comments line operator that unless Bush gets this message to
Schneeman, Bush will lose millions of votes on tuesday. Bush should deliver
this message to Schneeman via Dr.WEHR at CFSAN at FDA via 301-436-1724 WEHR
is CODEX PROGRAM COORDINATOR

Tell them if they want complete details to go to IAHF.COM and click on the
EMERGENCY FLASHING YELLOW BANNER (which brings them to
