I'm trying to find a suitable cooking option for an upcoming trip.  The
Peak1 stove won't fly, and Coleman Company never responded to my query
about whether Camping GAZ butane/propane cannisters were retailed anywhere
in Panama City.  Been looking at flyable fuel alternatives, without buying
yet another stove.

Was wondering about canned heat.....  there are little cans of liquid fuel,
I think called diethylene glycol, (they look like little Sterno cans), that
are sold in some outdoor stores. Will they explode or leak in the cargo
hold of a plane?  Anybody used em?  How about other ideas?  I've seen some
little fuel pellets.....

Am getting desperate....  gotta have my cuppa in the morning..... or I
don't move!!
