DZ, blowing in your pipe is like when you see the blacksmith stoking his fire with a bellows , temps go up unreal, Doc Watson said in his restoration he saw many pipes ruined by this, I did that to a pipe and shot it with a thermal gun, pipe btm went from 145degs tho 205 degs in a blink, not a good habit!

Reminds me of a cartoon from Playboy magazine depicting a conversation overheard in the hallway of a hotel:

"No, honey, you're supposed to suck. 'Blow' is just an expression!" :D
