You may remember an article I wrote on December 2nd, titled; "This Isn't Your Grandfather's Pipe".
I just updated it with new information from the CDC that shows not only that pipe smoking has increased in recent years, but that it has increased more in the 18 - 25 year old range.
Look for the UPDATE box just below the fold.
Check it out - This Isn't Your Grandfather's Pipe
Kevin - that is most bodacious! You sure do good work. We all need to thank you for sticking up for and advocating for us.

Thanks Les! Just doin' my job. 
It does seem that, after a "missing generation" the joys of pipe smoking are once again gaining favour. This can only be good news for the community as a whole.
ditto.
Thanks for the Info. I see a lot of young people smoking pipes lately at my B&M.

Great job Kevin. I have pointed a few of my nephews to the sight and I think we may be adding a few more pipe smokers soon!
My youngest son, a college sophomore at UNO, has decided quite on his own to pick up the pipe. I am so proud! :D. Thanks for the update!
Yes yes, get the word out. We are taking this industry over ladies and gentlemen. 
Ladies and gentlemen, let us remove our hats and lament the "lost generation" who threw the baby out with the bathwater and thus deprived themselves of an enjoyable pastime.
Now, raise your glasses to salute the younger generation, who are rekindling the hobby, and to Kevin and everyone on the PM.com forum who continue to do so much to support them.

Thats goo to hear that I am not the only young'un smoking pipes. I started my freshman year at 18, I am now half way through my sophomore year and am still enjoying my pipe, probably even more.
I am 19 and I am even the VP of the local pipe club in my area
Now, raise your glasses to salute the younger generation, who are rekindling the hobby, and to Kevin and everyone on the PM.com forum who continue to do so much to support them.

Good to have these younger folks! Hope they stay with it. 
That's great news, Kevin! Keep spreading the word!
Dang it , now they will raise the prices . 
All but one of the guys in our club is under 40. Most are under 30.
Great information. Thank you.
In the past 6 months I have enjoyed several positive comments by young men in their 20's as I walked by smoking my pipe. One said "I like your pipe...that is really old school" said with a tone that I know means he will find one and try it. My early 30's son-in-law is also interested. The more we smoke in public the more others will realize how bad cigars and cigarettes stink and give our hobby a try. I particularly enjoy smiling back at their girl friends.
We still need to fight regulation and support Greg and others in that fight.
Thank you Kevin, keep up the great work!!
I'm 22. Smoked cigs before and quit after a fight with pneumonia. I've tried cigars but I couldn't stand the stink. The pipe is the tastiest and most rewarding form of smoking I have tried. Absolutely love it.
Great article and very good to hear the younger generation getting into this fine pastime. May the trend continue.
I bought myself my first pipe last summer for my 18th birthday! Best birthday present i have given myself yet!
