Moe was recently in NYC hob-nobbing with an owner from an LCDH in Germany, and the guy was saying something like 90%+ of his sales were robusto-sized sticks. NINETY PERCENT! That's not fly by night ...

Yep. This is what bothers me. Smoke what you want. I don't care. But don't discontinue the stuff I prefer.
