    The reading comprehension skill is a joke. Ever since I can remember in school, 3rdgrade. The teachers were all a out "creative" interpretation of what was written. All based on politics and "personal feelings".

    Why are some pipes “expensive”?

    For most of the pipe smoking world, the purchase of an expensive pipe is merely to acquire personal prestige. It's like the urban cowboy, spends 90k on a truck, 400$ on cowboy boots, 200$ on a hat. And does nothing but go to work and the grocery store in it. It's like an off roading magazine...

    Some people did a rock mass system system where they put 5 tons of rock under ground and pull air through to heat up the rock in the day and release the heat at night for home heat I no. Its noticed to be found delightful by snakes in the desert

    Well al I t of the YouTube experts call a storage bin of open tins behind the water heater or furnace or next to the dryer is temp control. Others make that claim on the hall closet.

    How much do you cellar?

    If you read the science, at a certain depth the temp of the ground starts to work in layers that don't vary. As a result if you bury it at right depth you could keep it at constant temp. It's the main draw of underground home construction

    Why Is HU Directors Cut More Expensive Than Other HU Tobacco Blends?

    Alot of the European options seem to be 50 gram tins of what we get in 100 gram tins. And honestly, the 100 gram tins are only about 6$ more over the 50's cost via estervals. That Louisiana perique flake might be nice.

    #400 Superior Navy Flake by Newminster

Various reviews agree on that smell and taste. But the taste was interesting. Grassy until I had to tamper. Then it tasted very similar...

    SmokingPipes Badges & Benefits?

    5% on a Peterson takes it down a few dollars, but once I bought a pipe dunhill is locked at 15% though I haven't bought that brand. The badges would be nicer if the results were worthwhile. And didn't decrease.
