[QUOTE="user 2031, post: 397187, member: 2031"] I wouldn't take you on in this argument, because you may be right, but my guess is any scent of aromatic that ends up on your hands while smoking is coming from the smoke and fumes that you don't see coming from the top of the bowl instead of through the bowl. In my mind if that much aroma (smoke) worked it's way through a bowl that you would notice it on your hands, then unfinished pipes like Nordings would show considerable darkening after just a few smokes. But from what I have seen with them, they darken very slowly and appear to darken more from the oils on hands mixed with the heat of the bowl than from smoke and moisture the way meerschaum does. You've been around pipes and smoking a lot longer than I have though and I wouldn't stand by this argument, just some personal observation and thoughts. FWIW [/QUOTE]
