Amoungst the friends I have it really isn't a problem to get them and in fact I just did 2 weeks ago. There some really really good non cuban stuff too.

I'll take a 601 over most Cubans anyday

I'm a federal government sub-contractor

Get the 601 Greens. Those were the good ones. Should try all the AJ Fernandez stuff, MOW, Ave Maria. Good Values too. And check out cigarbid dot com. You can really score some good deals there.

Yup Cbid is commonly called the "devil site" So many times I order/win a 5ver of this, then bid a box of that and before long I have $150 gone and 50 more cigars!!

I'm a psychologist and writer.

Interesting that so many here are of the technical, engineering variety. Is that reflective of the pellet stove owning universe in general, or of the universe of owners who also want to yak about the stoves they own?

My husband is a self-employed plumber and I am a high school special ed teacher, mostly math.

Self employed computer repair and network tech aka the South Shores punching bag for the electronically challenged folk

I suspect the latter.

My county school system considered my son as a "Special Ed" student due to him having autism.
I Salute you for working with "Special Ed" students.
