    Well, as a non-smoker, I can't see why you would bother making cigarette
smoke out of something so cool.

    As a hundred more interesting uses I think it is very good. It misses
some of the granularity that smoke sometimes has, but maybe that's the
scale. And it seems to go chaotic very quickly. In a still room I would
expect it to stream a little longer.

    What I would like to see is the kind of double spiral that incense in a
still room sometimes makes... I've seen that go up 3-4 feet before almost
exploding into turbulence.
