    OK I have nothing better to do ...

    This is a really old thread carried over from the Greeneggers forum.  Out of curiosity, I wondered who's the OP [deleted user]? Did a quick search and discovered he's Greenegger's MOD WPB.

    Now I'm wondering if some of the BGE employees who used to post on the other forum also have [deleted user] status over there!

    Just soak a cotton ball in reg rubbing alcohol. Place a card board toliet paper tube in the middle of your lump pile. Drop the alcohol soaked cotton ball into the tube and light it. Simple as that. Works every time.
