yeah, pipe smokers seem to be a fairly rare breed these days. However, Marty, from Sherlock's, did show me some pictures of Iraq soldiers that smoked a pipe and explained that this is where cigar-ettes came from. There's such a thing as a military pipe which is a pipe that can be smoked in only 15 minutes or so. Soldiers needed this for obvious reasons. He explained that the cigar-ette was invented for the same reason: to be quick cigar for soldiers, thus the term cigarette or small cigar. kind of interesting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase Dreamweaver with Homesite Plus from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=54 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:150263 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
