    You ever made fire with Condys crystals and suger? That's fun

    No, but when I had science class in high school, my job was to fill up the alcohol burners.
    Then I had to sit in the corner, where my desk was, & watch.
    I got a "C" that year & passed.

    The only place I've been with questionable tap water is Mexico. I've never drank the water, as recommended, but I have shaved with it and I'm still alive. YMMV though

    I travel to under developed countries. Use bottled water or make distilled water. If you really have to, add a tablespoon of bleach to your water or purifying tablets i.e. iodine.
