I agree smoking is a disgusting habit and a totally unnatural thing to do, and those are the main reasons I gave it up. I smoked from my mid to late teens to my late 20's and then decided I didn't want to do that/be a salve to it for the rest of my life. My dad smoked all of his life - mostly Lucky Strikes. I smoked cigarettes, cigars, pipes, etc. when I smoked, and my dad smoked a pipe once in a while. He had a circular pipe rack with several pipes in it with a humidor in the center. Ironically I bought him a new pipe one time when he & my mother were visiting, and about 2 months later he stopped smoking entirely because his doctor told him he was developing emphysema. I have his pipe rack up on the top of a book case now. A pipe used to project the image of a sophisticated male. I won't ever use anything that requires me to inhale anything not natural. I get enought of that from polluted air.
