    Very nice. They were just rather on the expensive side for me. But it looks better than I imagined.

    Would you keep an ugly pipe that smokes really well?

    Would you keep an ugly pipe that smokes really well?

    If I can't get the functionality out of it that I want, I move it along to another who may do better with it.

    Climate Change and Its Impact on Tobacco Quality

    Not what I was doing. I was simply pointing out more than one contribution. I named 2 I could immediately think of. One was natural, one was man-made. Simple. End of reasoning for my statement. :)
