Shisha tobacco in a regular pipe?

There is no way it will work, the muassel is too wet.

I thought about that, but some flakes come pretty wet, too, and often smoke better with some drying. You don't think the same would work here? I did read last night on a hookah forum that shisha tobacco only "heats" instead of burns - comments like "Hookah tobacco isn't meant to be burned, only heated, so smoking it in a pipe would give you really harsh, disgusting smoke." Kinda sounds like BS to me, considering that there is a big lump of charcoal burning the tobacco and creating the smoke.... Smoke doesn't come from heating or steaming.
