Tony and Kathy,
I appreciate your advice and experiences. I love having myths
debunked! I'd like some clarification, please.
Would it be safe to build a fire under a propane tank whilst nekkid,
or would you recommend that one wear shorts? (I'd be afraid that it
might void the warranty if I were in my birthday suit. You know
those signs in the greasy spoons "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service."?)
Upon further reflection, I suppose the answer to part "A" of question
"1" might be driven by the gender, if any, of the fire-builder, and
the extent of their dangly bits. In my case, although I am 100%
male, my bits aren't terribly dangly. In that regard, where do you
stand on my dangly bits?
Next, I'd like to know if your approach to tank warming has
procreated (I was gonna say "evolved," but don't want to make any
assumptions -- talk about having myths debunked!) over time, or was
this how you were taught?
And I wonder what Mr. Bernard Leach would do? (WWBLD?)
Finally, do either of you subscribe to the "three-second rule" with
picking up hot things bare-handed? You know, like when some food
falls from the table, as long as it hasn't been on the floor for more
than three seconds, it's safe to eat.
Thanks again for your insights and advice.
Regards,
Maurice
ps To any claybuds in the Southern Hemisphere: to bits dangle
clockwise or counter-clockwise south of the Equator?
