[QUOTE="MartinH, post: 209881, member: 1494"] I'm currently reading Malcolm Gladwell's book "Outliers." It's a fascinating look at how people become successful. Much of what Gladwell realized is that a person needs much support and the right circumstances, and luck. But one major factor is becoming an expert in your field. After looking at several famous persons he surmises that the minimum time required to become an expert are 10,000 hours of dedicated study or practice. Now, translate that to pipe smoking, or anything else. That's ten years of doing one thing for almost 8 hours a day. Jeez! [/QUOTE]
