Steve -

I don't know that you've been following recent thread on ASP, but the 
BPTT is back and stronger than ever!  Three groups have formed (or 
re-formed as the case may be) with some familiar faces and some not-so.  
In any case, I am writing new guidelines for BPTT members and am looking 
for a non-commercial place to post the document.  It is currently in MS 
Word format, and is about two or three pages.  Would pipes.org be 
willing to host it?  I would also be happy to write an "Intro to the 
BPTT" for those looking for further information.

One problem we had last go around was many members in the BPTT 2 group 
(of which I was the unofficial leader) had no idea what 
alt.smokers.pipes was, did not know where to find the reviews once 
posted to ASP, and had never even heard of newsgroups.  All the current 
members are ASP readers, so this isn't as big a concern as before.  
Still, I would like to develop some sort of a relationship so that the 
reviews can all be posted on pipes.org so those who haven't a clue can 
still find them and read them.  Ideas?

Finally, I cannot find the link to the tobaccos listed at the London 
Dunhill store.  Was it removed?  Why?  I have copies of the literature 
from the London store and could possibly scan it in for you, or type in 
the more "English" blends (with tasting notes, if applicable) for you to 
post.  Let me know if this is of interest to you.

Kind regards,

Michael Lindner
