::::Thanks, your response strikes me as very reasonable. By the way, would you happen to have a link on the information you mentioned about the longevity of pipe smokers? I'd be very interested in reading it.

:::::It apparently refers back to the original 1964 Surgeon General's report. Here is an interesting and fairly written [http://www.meerschaumstore.com/health.htm article by Mark Beale, MD] that mentions it as well as some other interesting and relevant information that rings credible to me, at least. | |||

:Nothing, really. Used or previously owned pipes have come to be known as Estate pipes. They can either be smoked or unsmoked and still qualify. They can be cheap or expensive, and still qualify, and they can come from an English Lord's estate, or picked up off of a dying bum on the street. It just sounds better. I guess like previously owned cars versus used cars ;) --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 12:41, 11 January 2013 (CST) | :Nothing, really.
