At the risk of sounding silly, I'd just like to thank all of you for transforming this wonderful hobby into something really meaningful and enjoyable to me. I have learned more from this forum than I would've thought possible about pipes and tobacco. Speaking as a greenhorn, the input and advice that each of you gives of your own free will is what separates this site from the rest. Thanks to each of you for all you do for the "Brotherhood of the Briar." This is quite a righteous society of gentlemen.
