Like'em all! I'll have to pick up a Falcon by February. And, I love the idea of Claypril.

The "TM" cracks me up.. Is that for real? 
Like who would ever try to steal the words... "August Brylon Challenge" ? .. I love it. I noticed that Claypril is not on the above list. It must still be under review.

Here is another vote in favor.
There should be a Claypril.
The only people who don't like a clay pipe are the people who haven't tried one. Give them a reason to buy one. What's it going to set them back? 10-12 bucks? Only a rich man would rather buy this pipe instead of clay pipe:

I love a hyperbolic take on Danish design and a teardrop shank that has visual weight, but, really, when I smoke a pipe, I'm just smoking it to relax. You can't put a price on a good relaxing smoke. I'm not looking to smoke a museum piece that probably smokes 1/100th as good as my great, great, great, great, great grandfather's clay pipe at ye olde tavern in days of yore. I'll buy a clay pipe to smoke in next April.
Claypril.
I didn't do the math when I read this thread all the way through to here but I think we've now got four votes in favor. Anyone else want to speak up in favor of Claypril?

If there is a "Claypril", people should get extra points for smoking Rope/Plug in them. You know, for historical purposes.
