    First, Twinkies are non-flammable. Second, a 10-year Twinkie is indistinguishable from a fresh one.

    Maybe it's 354.430379747 times as bad as M79.

    Lol! You've got a good point; maybe Twinkies was not a good analogy.

    Of course, its absolute smokability might be essentially the same if it was 354.430379747 times better than M79.

    Brother Freestoke - so good to hear from you.

    But Mixture 79? Never again. Until I do. I keep things classy with my lovely Ennerdale if I need the type.

    Now I want a bowl of Ennerdale.

    Thanks, Pete! I'm coming close to needing a case of pipe cleaners, so maybe I'll find the energy to order some.

    The sparse reviews in so far on M28000 are starting to sound hauntingly familiar, much like those for its namesake, M79.
