Interesting....
I wish you had mentioned this in your original reply.... Totally different animal, a pipe versus a water bottle,,,,, and a different but interesting subject. I'd certainly like to know more, but it is a subject for another topic thread.

It also would have tempered your very "irrefutable" sounding answer.
