My bad! Notice that I didn't add brews either (in this context)! But, I venture to say that the emergent fascination with both smoking and drinking is for a bit different reason than that held by some on this board. When I was young (about a 100 years ago), we smoked pipes and drank beer at Westmont to prove that we were not uptight fundamentalists and that we really were famous theologians in the making.
