This can be thrown into some thread purgatory because the post was made under the influence of cough syrup and an energy drink. Why are there so many posts on starting fires? Do y'all really start that many fires? I struggle with a fire or two every year. maybe more so in the early fall and early spring, but for the most part I just start a fire and reload on hot coals for weeks on end. I mean, we have posts on how to break fire starters into sixteenths. Seriously? Forget that crap; chuck the whole thing in there and let it burn.
