[QUOTE="Wet Dottle, post: 15932, member: 192"] Regor, I understand what you are saying. The analogy you use does not reflect how I feel about it. Silverware is metal, wood is porous. I think of pipes more like cars: when buying an used one you just don't know how it has been treated. And I believe the "only smoked once" story as much as the one about the old lady that only drove her car to go to church on Sundays. An even better analogy might be underwear: I am not going to put on someone else's used underwear no matter how many times you boil the thing in pure alcohol, or sulfuric acid, or what not. I don't mean to disparage used pipes or anyone involved in trading them. Nor am I trying to convince anyone to change sides. This is an irrational and perhaps unhealthy attitude on my part, but it is how I feel and that's that. No flames please. :) [/QUOTE]
