A case for smoking them dryer

Steve Herman, who passed away awhile ago but was a regular poster on alt.smokers.cigars also liked lower humidity. He claimed that the natural aging process of cigars would be significantly slower at 65-70% and kept his cigars at 50-55%. Steve was a living encyclopedia of cigars so, I'm sure he did extensive research. I'm always trying for 62%.
