@5tonyvvvv Don't get me wrong...I wasn't kidding. I could kisk myself in the butt for not paying better attention. When "civilization" hit, there was a way, (no...noot matches), that these people would tie some paper in such a way that would either increase friction or some sort od a thing that would start the paper burning in about three minutes. O'l Garndpa showed us but I was about eleven or twelve and just can't remember. I've tried but can't do it. Got any ideas?
