				 Re: Thoughts on purging 
 
			
			I had never purged in about 23 years of cigar smoking.  MJ did it one day and I asked what he was doing, and he explained purging to me.  Shortly after that, I had this particular cigar which was beginning to taste a little acrid.  I tried a purge, as MJ had showed me.  WOW!!!  It got rid of that bitter and acrid taste and the cigar was wonderful.
 I don't purge very often.  However, if I get a cigar that sort of turns south on me, I'll give it a purge.  Usually, it makes a big difference - occasionally it make just a slight difference - but I have only had a couple times were it made no difference.
 
 That is just my experience.
 
 Peace of the Lord be with you.
