[QUOTE="clueless, post: 133192, member: 649"] Actually I think it is just as likely that if young people understand the cost of pipe tobacco we could all benefit greatly. I have found pipe smoking is much more economical than any other form of tobacco use. If more people realize this, and come to appreciate the infinite variety and tastes available, they could flock to it. That would encourage more producers and blends and be great for all. I heard Letterman say last night that cigarettes are now $12 a pack in New York. I haven't seen that for my wifes smokes yet but $10 a pack is still 50 cents for a chemically laden, nasty tasting, 5-6 minute smoke. Of course there are a lot better tastes available in cigars than cigarettes. When I did those for a few years $15, $20, and higher DAYS were the norm. And the tastes were still not what we get from our briars, cobs, and meers. Yes, prices have gone up. They will go up more. I think we, as pipe smokers, probably get more pleasure - and value - per dollar than most. Light 'em up and spread the word. [/QUOTE]
