    I just observed that if I blow THROUGH my pipe while the bowl is empty and place a lighter in front of it, the flame gets sucked into the bowl exactly the same way as when I inhale through it to get a hit. Just curious of the science behind this.

    is your carb bigger than the bowl hole? if so, then more air will be going through the carb and causing the flame to suck towards it. actually i have no idea thats the best guess i can think of.

    40oz got my guess. I don't see how i'd work otherwise.

    High magnitues of air pressure create a vacum and suck the air particles through the carb and into the bowl. Or maybe im just stoned.

    My pipe doesn't have a carb. Its about a four inch long oney(sp?). Do I have in my possession some sort of physics-defying super pipe?!?!

    That is what I believe as well.
