[Sca-cooks] Groovy Camp oven

[Ian Kusz]

>From what I've seen, An Tir Laurels have two methods to use, but they only
use them in the absence of matches.  They don't like to show off.

One is to explain to the logs that their belief that they are NOT on fire is
erroneous, providing historical documentation of that fact, and the logs
burst into flame.

The other is to hold a magnifying glass behind them, and point it at the
logs; because, of course, the sun shines out of
their....ahem...hindquarters.

Respectfully (and fearfully),
