Hi! I thought I'd start off by passing some addresses to you:

	Tom Dunn
	The Universal Coterie of Pipe Smokers
	20-37 120th St.
	College Point, NY 11356

Tom puts out a witty and informative newsletter called "The Pipe
Smoker's Ephemeris" on an irregular basis, and in general acts as a
focal point for pipe smokers, Sherlockians, hobbits, and others of
similar persuasion. The newsletter is free (he sent it to me for
years, no questions asked!), but a donation would be nice. TPSE/TUCOPS
is the largest and most worthwhile group of pipe aficionados I know.

	International Association of Pipe Smokers' Clubs
	17 Midline Road
	Ballston Lake, NY 12019

Honestly, I don't know how active the IAPSC is; I tried to contact
the local chapter for Philadelphia while I lived there, and never got
an answer. You may have better luck, though; it's worth a stamp.

	Pipe Collectors International, Inc.
	6172 Airways Blvd.
	Box 22085
	Chattanooga, TN 37422

I have just learned of this group, and wrote to them last week; I'll
let you know the results. Also look for a mini-review of one of the
popular tobacco blends, as soon as I decide on one (probably by
stochastic processes, aka random guess :-9

Smoke in peace,

~\U Steve.
