I was being facetious, at 4 bucks a gallon and the risk of lighting myself on fire its not worth using gas. If i do tend to have very wet wood Ill usually start the fire with some scrap palette and lighter fluid.
I was kind of hoping that was the case . . . but you never know . . . every year come Spring and Summer there is some fool in the news who tried to get their brush pile or camp fire going by tossing on some gas . . . only to get horribly burned when the gas vapors ignite and travel back to the gas can.
