As I recall, pipe smoking kinda took a nose-dive around that time. So apparently the research showed a correlation. That's good enough for me, because I would want to smoke a pipe almost every evening. I've seen pictures of oral cancers in college pathology class, and oh my god...
KC, yes, we did make a pact, and I'll keep my word. Kind of a relief actually. I can find something else to do while reading books in the evening. Maybe a small glass of port would be perfect.
