... and smoking with wet wood is better than using dry. It's got something to do with the number of carcinogens removed by soaking wood chips that would otherwise "poison" your smoke. Sorry to have misled everyone for all these years but wanted to set the record straight. Mea culpa.

Well, after checking the calendar after I posted and seeing it was April 1st, it turns out that the only time I was wrong was when I said I'd been wrong. Thanks for noticing, Pappy.
