Subject: pipe info archive

Dear Steve
I m passing on a idea sort of from Pete Siegel. A lot of times people
answer posts with reasonably technical replies that I think are worthyof
being saved. Such as the thread on buffing wheel ste ups. Its not something
that needs to be in the FaQ but it something that seems to come up alot.
Would it be possible to organize and archive some of these subjects?

As presently I have no acess to a web server could this be done in
conjunction with P.D.? My brother is working in becoming a web site sever
it will probably be a few months. I hope to do a web page then and maybe
could get some space at tthat time . Let me know what you think of the
idea.

My e-mail address is:    ???????????????????

 ...and I have made contact with Mark.

There have been some questions about the quality of Alpha and Dr.
Grabow pipes.  I did a post about a week ago in which I discussed the
quality of briar which goes into pipes.  If anyone has a copy of that
post, you might want to re-post it for these folks.  If I get the chance
later I might do a chart corresponding to hat I mentioned in that post.

[ Yr. Moderator has been (and will likely continue to be) a bit lax in
the preparation of the FAQ.  I could suggest the search engine on the
Web page, in lieu of this.  If you'd like to do some organization,
please feel free, and I'll ask Steve Beaty to put in a hot link. -S. ]
