Orginations such as AARP and NRA seem to have a good bit of influence these days.I've been wondering if those involved in the pipe smoking industry would consider it beneficial to form such an orgination.Maybe there's just too few of us to make such a thing practical.Any way it's just a thought I had..At my age I expect to be able to smoke my pipe until I'm either too old or gone to the next life.I have real concerns though about Big Brother's effects on the long term future of pipe smoking.
