While away on a business trip earlier this week I was outside the building smoking my pipe when one of the guards struck up a conversation with me. He was a cigar smoker but was genuinely interested in pipes. I went over all of the pros and cons (PAD & TAD) that I had experienced with pipe smoking. He seemed very excited. This morning he flagged me down on my way into the office. Apparently he had spent a good portion of Tuesday evening researching pipes and pipe tobaccos. I answered everything that I could and referred him to the forum. As I was leaving to come back home he approached me again to ask for my opinion on some pipe starter kits that he had found on a couple of websites. They were decent deals, but included tobaccos that I had never tried so I really couldn't comment on them. Before I left I told him that I had a few pipes that I may be willing to part with if he was really interested. I'm set to meet up with him next weekend, I told him I would let him sample some of my tobacco stock, as he really isn't sure what he wants. I did tell him about the pipe program the forum has to offer as well. Thought I'd share! ::
