Smoking 1/2 Bowl at a Time. Get a Smaller Pipe?
I more often than not smoke a bowl over two sessions (or even three in my large freehand). I usually prefer it over smaller bowls. The relight is easy, and often it seems to take on a better quality after it's cooled down and rested. Sometimes I have more than one partially smoked bowl...- --dante--

Cob Question
I find a cob does take a few bowls to break in, less so than briars. For a good cob with a quality acrylic stem, check Boswell Pipes site. They occasionally have a number of MM Country Gentleman pipes with custom Boswell made stems, which are very nice.- --dante--

New Zealand to Ban Smoking for Next Generation in Bid to Outlaw Habit by 2025
Prohibition (in the US and several other countries in the early 20th century). And no tapering by age, it (alcohol) was just outright made illegal.- --dante--
