This is called the rule of 9s.

Of course this only holds true if I don't smoke any inbetween those particular times.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
I like the way Todd does math the rule of nine could definitely work...

My rule of thumb is....... I don't want to die with vacation time or cigars left over.

Larry, Thanks for the rule of thumb.. I like it!

As I said before. I like to get 5ers so I can try them here and there.. as time goes on. Either ROTT, or a year from now and in between.

I was seeing if anyone, or how close we all did it. I can see how it is a personal preference.
