[QUOTE="Buddy Springman, post: 22816, member: 350"] I'm in bed with the cooler crowd. I think "smoking hot" is NOT really about temperature. Check out R. Winans' "The Pipe Smoker's Tobacco Book" (1977, occasionally available on Amazon) pages 58-64. Per these passages, derived from an edition of Beitrage Zur Tobakforschung (Vol. 4, pp. 32-79, 1967, West Germany), the hottest smoke from a 2 1/16 inch stem is only 118° F....tepid by coffee standards. So we're talking chemistry here. And it seems intuitively obvious to me that one has better control of events in the bowl (chemistry) with a short shank. Whatever side you take, check-out this Tinsky-blast-by-Rad [url=http://www.imageno.com/mkihdvt59ks6pic.html][IMG]https://2img.net/h/www.imageno.com/thumbs/20080622/mkihdvt59ks6.jpg[/IMG][/url] Buddy [/QUOTE]
