  Hello Steve and all who partake in pipe and cigar;
I'm really distressed at the huge number of idiotic posts to
alt.smokers.cigars and alt.smokers.pipes.Its begining to look like
alt.smokers.This is a tremendous shame.Lets hope it doesn't last too
long.Unfortunately it seems that one supposedly misplaced and misquoted
post involving something about killing all non-smokers has really drawn the
interest of the anti-smoking nazis.Now it would seem they are firmly
entrenched.Thankfully we still have this great forum to discuss matters of
the leaf.Perhaps if we ignore these idiots,they will tire and go back to
alt.smokers.
         Glad to have a safe haven...Michael Stanley

[ Fortunately, they seem to have done so, for the most part. The Net
being what it is, an unmoderated group is a perfect platform for such
trolls.  Just grit your teeth (around a favorite smoke) and ignore
'em. -S. ]
