Doug, sometimes you > scare me. ;-) Aren't Christians one of the most likely groups to engage in book burning, historically speaking? Actually I like the idea of using books that are in bad enough shape to be on their last read in that manner. Stephen King even wrote one that was labeled as being specifically for this purpose. :) Since I have recently taken to reading ebooks on my iPaq I haven't figured out how to use this method. I guess ebooks just aren't good firestarters. :) Seriously, my emergency kit contains a couple Bic lighters, a candle, and some parafin soaked corrugated cardboard all in a ziplock bag. These items have never failed me for starting a fire when needed. Traditional methods are good to know and fun to practice, but when soaked and cold, easier is better. Pete Yahoo!
