A few weeks back a person was suggesting it was safe to use gasoline to start a fire.
In a post I responded by saying it was a bad thing to do . . . since the manufacturers all state not to do it and it's just a plain dangerous thing to try.
I followed up by saying that usually at least once a year I hear of someone who gets severely burned while attempting to use gasoline to light their woodstove on fire . . . or brush pile in the spring. I predicted that this year would not be any different and we would see at least one person hurt . . .
Sadly, it didn't take long for my prediction to come true . . . and sadly, the person died.
