Now, I'll have to dig it out, Wes.  Where have you taken it, and did you have 
any trouble finding the denatured alcohol?  I don't suppose campgrounds in 
the US (I favor KOA when solo traveling) stock it in their mini-stores.  They 
say hardware stores have them, but I believe I asked at a hardware store in 
Venezuela (just testing) and they didn't.  T'aint usual to find a hardware 
store near a campground, is it?

What is denatured alcohol anyway?  Why won't isopropyl alcohol (available at 
any drugstore work).  And please don't get too scientific on my you techies!
